Hall of Fame alumni
Two members of the Montreal Juniors would be enshrined in the HHOF. One of them played for the Juniors, the other was one of the team's coaches.
Denis Savard was a local superstar and centreman, who played three seasons with the Juniors racking up 455 points in three years. He would go on to play many years for the Chicago Blackhawks, and won a Stanley Cup with the Montreal Canadiens in 1993.
Jacques Laperrière was a defenseman, part of many Montreal Canadiens championship teams. After retiring as a player, Laperrière took on the position of coach of the Montreal Juniors prior to the 1975-76 season. Partway through the following year he resigned, as the pressure and violence at the amateur level caused him to sour on his new profession.
