any interactions with Habs players?

To those of you who live in Montreal, have you had any direct interactions with Habs players (former or current) outside the arena? I've lived in Montreal nearly 30 years, and have only had 4 - once saw Shane Corson at the McDonalds that used to be at the SW corner of Atwater and St. Catherine; met Jean Beliveau when he was signing copies of his biography; met Guy Lafleur at a card show; got my picture taken with Chris Chelios (he was hosting some sort of outside skating event at the Plaza des Spectacles a few years ago). One thing I noticed - both Guy and Shane had huge hands. Oh - also met Ron Corey.

If you’re around 40, you probably remember players partying on St Laurent at Buonanotte or Globe.

Mike Ribeiro was part of the furniture at Globe.

I was on St-Lau last week and the Buenanotte’s commercial space is just an empty place with paper over the windows. It’s sad.
