PRESS RELEASE
MONTREAL – Following a successful 15-year career in the NHL, including 11 as a member of the Montreal Canadiens, defenseman Francis Bouillon made his retirement official Friday.
For Francis Bouillon, size has never been an issue. He always played big and throughout his career he made sizeable contribution to the success of every team he played with, thanks to a perfect blend of work ethics, commitment and tenacity. A leader on and off the ice, he was the backbone of Michel Therrien’s team when the Granby Predators captured the Memorial Cup back in 1996.
