When I decorated my basement with old sports memorabilia, a buddy of mine (who is a Habs fan) asked me why I had no Montreal stuff. I told him I didn't want to cheapen the place.
To make him happy, I hung an autographed pic of Cornoyer from the 72 series
On this day in 2002, Canadiens captain Saku Koivu plays for the first time since being diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma just 7 months earlier. His return inspires the Habs to a 4-3 win over the Sens that clinches their 1st playoff berth since 1998.
Vividly remember this night. Brought tears to my eyes.
