The Flower and The Fonz from Happy Days were my two childhood heroes growing up.
I was 10 years old in 1976. Both were right in my wheelhouse.
Guy dominated the NHL for 4 years 76-79 with his lightning speed, booming slapshot and instinct for the net. I agree with BOOMer...feeling old today. He was only 14 years older than me.
RIP Mr. Lafleur and thanks for all of the edge of the seat memories!
