gold star for USAHOF

Serge Savard

Serge Savard
An integral part of the Montreal Canadians defensive squad of the 1970’s, Serge Savard brought a blended and intelligent game to the Habs’ blue line. Savard did not have the same offensive skills as his team mate, Larry Robinson, but his methodical hardnosed style of play was a perfect complement to the rest of Montreal’s stars. Savard was part of seven Stanley Cup victories (and was the GM for two more in Montreal) and he won the Conn Smythe in 1969. Perhaps his greatest individual accolade was the winning of the Bill Masterton Trophy in 1979 which is given annually to the player who represents perseverance, sportsmanship and an overall dedication to the sport. Sounds like an award meant for Serge Savard.
