He died before they retired his number!?!?! I'm so depressed. He was such a great player overall for those then dominate Canadiens. My hockey coach infact in the 60s when I was 11 called me "Boom boom," because I played the same style of play as him. Boom boom is infact one of the first players I knew besides Maurice Richard. Geoffrien is one of my top 5 favourite players of all time! I'm so sad.

Bernie Geoffrien 1931-2006. You gave me a wonderful nick name.
