From The Montreal Gazette:

The Gazette
"...I see where the Canadiens will honour coaches Dick Irvin Sr., Toe Blake and Scotty Bowman as part of their centenary celebrations...."
"...They were the best of the best. On the other hand, here's another idea: by all means honour them as a group, but also raise Blake's No. 6 to the Bell Centre rafters. His record on and off the ice cries for it...".
"...And while the Canadiens are at it, raise linemate Elmer Lach's No. 16 on the same night. The Punch Line he served on, along with Maurice Richard and Blake, deserves to be together. They were the best part of many of the Canadiens' best years...".
