When my dad taught me about hockey when I was a kid, he taught me about Saku Koivu. My dad showed me that hockey was a sport to love, to give your heart, and that it's played with your heart not with talent, or cockiness.
Ever since then, my favourite number was 11 and it will always be!
Numero 11 est mon numero preferee et ca sera pour toujours!
if he were on the team now for sure we would win the stanley cup.
it's because of stupid overated kovalev that we never came close to winning it yes, he had a great shot but if your to lazy to get back defensivley, you shouldn't even be in the nhl
Yeah, and i hate ppl who say : He never put his heart on the ice, he doesnt speak french and stuff like that!... Koivu would play each game as if it was his last and wasnt afraid to go in corners! Saku wasnt maybe the one that had the best hockey sense but fuck he would give his heart to it! :D
montreal make one of the dummest move even if we dont win the cup saku will always be the captain montreal never did have and never will 1oo % pure heart captain alex kovalev is good but he dont deserve the C a true captain never give up on his on team for a few more buck
Saku is not maybe 80pts scorer, but he puts his A to his game everynight. Kovalev will not do that. Saku is really great player, and person! He beated cancer, and hope i will get taste of cup some day!
The first one is titled "Liberty Shield", and the second track is called "Redemption". Both are from Immediate Music. PM me if you'd like a link to the tracks.
he was my hero growing up.......and i still cant beileve hes gone..... good luck koivu with the ducks but i hope you treat montreal with merories and passion and maybe some day you can come back!
who 14 on the sens? that guy is really smart because he left the center circle so koivu will be in the center circle by himself for people to salute him
Haf Koivu averaged 85 pts per season instead of 70-ish - something easily achievable with the true #1 wingers he never had - they'd be building a temple in his honor. I understand Plekanec is the better long-term choice, but holy sh*t we'll miss Saku... He's a perfect fit for the Ducks with Selanne and Getzlaf as #1 center.
If it wasn't for all the unfortunate injuries, it's for damn sure Koivu would have been a point-per-game player. It's a shame that we let him go, he would have made a great duo with Cammalleri.
Scott Gomez or him.. lol.. Habs will become as good as the Rangers.. lol... Ducks, you have a great chance at the cup this comming year! Congrats Ducks!
Excellent choice for music my friend. And I like the fact that you didn't leave out the background sound. MUCH better than the other tribute videos with the lame tunes.
hell yeah we have like the best offensive group in the league, getzlaf , ryan, perry, selanne, lupul, and koivu! not to mention ebbet and miller who can produce
being from montreal, the ducks r getting a great player and i hope that he helps u guys get to the final so the habs can beat you. lol still i think that he has too much class to play for some of the fans here. hope he gives your team 100 points. if he stays health he could believe me
that would be great even just to get back to the finals, and if he produced a 100 point season, though unlikely considering hes a second line player that would be great aswell
Thank you Saku for all youve done for montreal.....we loved you here and will allways love and respect you here in montreal. Good luck on what ever comes your way in the future.
