MONTREAL -- For sale: hockey great Mario Lemieux's 50-room Quebec summer home.

The price of the 6-year-old chateau-style Mont-Tremblant residence: $21,999,066, the last few dollars an ode to Lemieux's famous No. 66.

Realtor Michel Naud said the asking price was strategic as the Pittsburgh Penguins owner knew putting the property on the market would garner heavy interest. "He agreed to put the $66 at the end of his asking price," Naud said.

The 17,000 square-foot castle known as the Chateau Fleur de Lys has eight bedrooms and nine bathrooms and "offers a majestic panoramic view" of Tremblant Lake in the Laurentian Mountains about 80 miles northwest of Montreal.
