He back stopped Montreal to 6 Stanley Cups in the 70s. He sat out a year over a contract dispute…otherwise it would have been 7. Dryden only played 6 games his first year and lead Montreal to a surprise championship and played 7 more seasons and won 6 championships. 6 championships in 8 years and retired a champion.

Great man and a Class Act. IIRC wasn't he also the color man for Al Michaels for the Miracle on Ice broadcast in 1980?

Ken 'The four story goalie' Dryden broke my heart more than any other athlete in any sport.

RIP

Before the NHL he had a stellar college career and won a natty and only lost 4 games in his college career.

He was a straight up a winner. He did not like losing…

Hockey in the 70’s was great . And the Canadiens were at the top of the hill . And unlike the Flyers of that era with goons the Canadiens with Dryden were playing hockey not roller derby .

Not enough puck heads on this board would appreciate what he brought to the NFL and hockey around the world. His cup of coffee as President of the Leafs aside, he is/was one of a kind

Talking about coffee I love Tim Horton coffee buy it with Amazon prime . The old Toronto Maple Leaf of the Dryden era .

The Montreal Canadiens are so classy. Well done Montreal.

A great send off for a great human first and a hall of fame Stanley Cup champion…

Many former teammates were in attendance.
