mar 11, 1996 - Passing The Torch

Description:

After the game was over, a ceremony was held for the greatest players to wear the red white and blue sweater. A torch was passed from the oldest living captain, Emile Bouchard, to the other current Montreal legends who received an incredible standing ovation by the fans. This became a tradition for the hockey club and is still used to this day.
