If you didn’t think our coach is feeling some heat check out his comments about the crowd. We got a huge French population Scotty. You live here you should know this. I feel that’s a sign he’s lost the room a bit. When you worried about who is in the stands.

Plus Montreal is an iconic original 6 franchise. My grandfather was a huge Canadians fan. Huge.

Mine was a huge Maple Leafs fan. He had buddies that he'd phone with after checking scores in the paper - similar to this forum, actually. It would've been in the 30s, 40s & 50s.

I remember attending a Jets 1.0 home game against the Habs and I was running late and as I entered the arena outside of ice site, the crowd erupted so i thought alright Jets scored but nope as i entered my entrance to my seats 1-0 Habs.

This might have been the most Habs fan heavy crowd since the 80s. Back then CBC French would show the Habs at 7 on.a Saturday night instead of the Jets(who rarely played Sat. for some reason) so I can kinda understand why that was plus before the xpansion in 67 you either were a TOR or MTL fan in this city.

45+ years later, most of the original 6 fans are dead or in a home so I wonder why we’re there so many fans at the game.

I have a theory.

It’s cheaper to fly to WPG, rent a room and get game tickets then it is to buy tickets in TOR or MTL 😆
