The Jacques Laperriere Auction - Fall 2008
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 10/21/2008
One last look at Patrick Roy in an official Montreal Canadiens team photo. This is the official 1994-95 team photo that was presented to assistant coach Jacques Laperriere, who has signed the reverse in blue sharpie. Roy and Habs captain Mike Keane were dealt to Colorado the following season and both went on to win the Stanley Cup that spring with the Avalanche, though neither of them could have foreseen such events at the time this photo was taken. Jacques Demers and Serge Savard also would have been surprised to learn of the fate that awaited them in the early days of the following season, when they would both be fired after a bad start. Nothing but smiling faces from them, as well as Mark Recchi, Vincent Damphousse and Pierre Turgeon, despite the fact that the Canadiens missed the playoffs for the first time since 1970 at the end of the shortened 1994-95 season.
