Hockey Hall of Famer Larry Robinson was visibly emotional carrying the famous torch into the Bell Centre ahead of Game 6 Saturday night, reflecting on the intensity of playoff hockey at the iconic venue. "I thought they were loud when we played," Robinson said, "but that was another octave. I had a big lump in my throat. It's pretty emotional when you come down there. It brings back a lot of great memories." Despite Robinson's nostalgic presence, the Canadiens fell short, setting the stage for a winner-take-all Game 7 Monday in Buffalo.
