Remembering Jean Beliveau

The beloved former captain of the Montreal Canadiens died on Thursday at age 83. Jean Beliveau won 10 Stanley Cups as a player and seven more as a Canadiens vice-president; no one's name has been engraved on the Cup more often than his. The Habs captain from 1961 until his retirement in 1971, he was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1972. "Le Gros Bill" was well-regarded and will be remembered for his grace, class and peerless leadership.
