Two minutes in and already 2-0

 

[senrab]

That is the loudest arena in pro sports.

 

[iloveedge]

That was something...

Halte-là, halte-là! Les Canadiens sont là!

 

[senrab]

Bonavista accents for the win! I drove out all the way to Bonavista just to take a photo of this:

 

[iloveedge]

Ooh! Cool!

 

[senrab]

I remember you posting that a few years ago

 

[iloveedge]

Craig Rivet was born 45 minutes away from here...they never put up a sign

To late now anyways...

Hee! I couldn't remember if I had posted it here or not.

I'm wearing a Habs jersey right now

Good

Totally agree; I always get goose-bumps before the game. And to top it off, they come out to Streets

Al Gore was at a game last week and afterwards he said "those fans are the best sport fans in the world"

(Of course, many soccer/footie fans are just as loud and enthusiastic!)

 

[iloveedge]

Plus, they play Vertigo when they score

 

[senrab]

It was the Streets live version from Boston too

 

[senrab]

The Sabres used to come out to City of Blinding Lights, last year it was Vertigo

 

[iloveedge]

U2 and hockey just go together

My Junior home team used to come out to Streets...it's just amazing

 

[senrab]

I love all the Tragically Hip's hockey songs.

 

[iloveedge]

What are the songs title?

 

[senrab]

Fireworks
50 Mission Cap
The Lonely End of the Rink

 

[iloveedge]

Thanks! I'll check those out!

The last 2 times the Habs were in Buffalo, we got Ole'd out of our own building.

Hold on, hold on....I missed the opening. Are you telling me they came out to Streets tonight? They did that years ago and then in 2005 switched to a loop of Coldplay's "Fix You".

They went back to Streets and I missed it?!

 

[iloveedge]

Yop, you missed it dude!

 

[BoMac]

Yop, you missed it dude!

Oh well, at least they're winning!!

 

[iloveedge]

You'll get the chance to catch Canadiens Express at 12h30!

 

[BoMac]

^Tru dat!

 

[BoMac]

4-1!!

 

[iloveedge]

LE TIR ET LE BUT!!

 

[Thora]

Damn, I've missed most of the game. I really need to write down the times of the games, because I'm gonna miss them all if I don't!

Glad to see Montreal winning!
