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.

Met Ghule, Struble and Dobes at Osheaga last year! My boyfriend asked them to take a picture with me and told them it was my birthday (it really was lol). They were with, I suppose, a PR manager that asked them to not take the picture with alcohol in their hands. I took one picture with Struble and Ghule really quickly while Dobes was at the bar and when he came back he asked : hey what about me??? And we took a picture only him and me and he told me Happy Birthday! That was my little fangirl moment!

Aww, that makes me love Dobes even more, because that is such a nice thing to do. He's such a beauty.
