Friend with Assist as Laraque Scores Career Jerseys

By

As a career right winger, Georges Laraque recorded exactly 100 assists during his 16-year NHL career. This time, he was on the receiving end of one.  

Laraque, who is now the owner of Ultime Sports in Quebec—a popular hobby shop—knows plenty about the hobby, but trying to reacquire some of the jerseys he wore for the Oilers, Penguins, Canadiens and Coyotes has been a tough task. However, long-time friend and fan Michael Schayer connected online with a collector and the discovery was a gold mine for the stunned Laraque.
