Former Montreal Canadiens star Guy Lafleur has died at the age of 70.

Number 10 has been fighting lung cancer for several years.

During his career, Lafleur won five Stanley Cups with the Canadiens from 1971 to 1984.

The Flower wrapped up his brilliant 17-season NHL career with the New York Rangers where he played for one year from 1988-1989 and then the Quebec Nordiques between 1989 and 199.

Fans bid goodbye to one of the league's greatest goal scorers, Islanders legend Mike Bossy died last Friday of lung cancer at the age of 65.
