Home,There are those that believe that the H in the center of the logo on the Montreal Canadiens jersey stands for Habs. Rumour has it that the term “Habs” comes from a time when there were two hockey teams in hockey town Montreal. There was the team of the english people, as Montreal was where the English settled and controlled french Canada. The team of the french people – les habitants – the habs was made up of the rural young men who grew up playing ice hockey on the ponds ands streets of the farming settlements that surrounded Montreal. The rivalry between the two teams was legendary. Eventually the teams were combined as early Canada grew and prospered, and hockey grew with Canada. Still the heritage of the early french settlers runs deep through this glorious organization.
Still others think that the H in the team logo, stands for Hockey. The real beauty of the Habs logo is the C-H-C pattern. Club de Hockey Canadien. read more… Go Habs Go!
Just finished watching tonight’s game….So disappointed in the guys. They need a good boot in their bums to make them work harder for the whole 60 minutes of the game, not just the first and second periods.. They have to try harder to get the puck to the goal. Do they want to continue to play hockey or are they too tired and want to go play golf instead?
Sorry to sound negative, but the story is that they are not working in the third period and are losing games because of this.
