Montreal Canadiens Alumni tour comes to the maritimes

It’s been announced that the Montreal Canadiens alumni will be playing in Summerside PEI on either the 11th or the 12th of February 2010.

Here’s the Journal Pioneer’s announcement.

I’d love to see the Alumni play.

Some of the players listed on this trip:

Stephane Richer, Yvon Lambert, Sergio Momesso, Gilbert Dionne, Mario Roberge, Karl Dykhuis and goaltender Richard Sevigny.

Kyle Chipchura… The Duck

Although Kyle Chipchura didn’t have a huge impact in Montreal and didn’t quite develop as the organization had hoped I thought I’d post this as my mini-tribute.

Here’s an aspect that he was starting to bring more and more in Montreal.





Maybe it’s a little late to say it, but best wishes to you in Anaheim Kyle!

100th anniversary ceremonies

Boston Bruins v Montreal Canadiens

Last night was a magical night for Montreal Canadiens fans. I thought they would have some special surprises planned but I couldn’t have guessed how it would have unfolded.

I watched RDS for many hours before the game and was impressed from the beginning. I thought it was just great.

When they dimmed the lights in the Bell Center I almost felt goose bumps all over.. I knew something pretty neat was gonna take place.

Then… when the pucks were dumped on the ice and I saw Patrick Roy walking on the ice in full gear…. I was in awe. It was awesome. Seeing all those guys jump on the ice brought back alot of memories. One guy I hadn’t noticed walk on the ice was Mats Naslund… later when he was introduced I was so pleased to see him there. He was one of my favorite players in his time in Montreal.

I won’t try to name every player that skated with the alumni… but let’s just say I thought it was very classy and very cool for the die hard Canadiens fans. Many of those guys I hadn’t seen in their playing days but like some of you (I’m sure) I’ve read about them and have seen their statistics over and over again. I’m not just really a fan of the Montreal Canadiens I’ve seen on the ice….. I’m a fan of the Montreal Canadiens rich history as much as I am the current team they ice year after year.

Francis Bouillon officially signs with Predators

Montreal Canadiens v Boston BruinsHad heard the reports that Francis Bouillon had signed a tryout contract with the Nashville Predators earlier during training camp.

Well, it was officially announced by the Predators on their website yesterday that Francis has signed a 1 year deal with them.

The Predators are getting a tough as nails d-man in Francis who will give his all for their team and won’t back down from anyone despite his small frame.

Best wishes to you Francis!
