Tampa Bay in NHL FINAL!!!

I'm so impressed with the amount of sport success Tampa Bay has had lately. Should be an interesting NHL FINAL series with overachieving underdog Montreal Canadiens.

Tampa will have a MUCH bigger audience at home than Canadiens. I wonder if that will have any effect.

Montreal Canadiens - Wikipedia Nickamed "Habs" due to miscommunication.

Quote:

One of sport's oldest and most recognizable logos, the classic 'C' and 'H' of the Montreal Canadiens was first used together in the 1917–18 season, when the club changed its name to "Club de hockey Canadien" from "Club athlétique Canadien",[42] before evolving to its current form in 1952–53. The "H" stands for "hockey", not "Habitants," a popular misconception.[43] According to NHL.com, the first man to refer to the team as "the Habs" was American Tex Rickard, owner of the Madison Square Garden, in 1924. Rickard apparently told a reporter that the "H" on the Canadiens' sweaters was for "Habitants".[44] In French, the "Habitants" nickname dates back to at least 1914, when it was printed in Le Devoir to report a 9–3 win over Toronto on the 9th of February.[45][46]

I want to see Carey Price win a Cup. Being a fan of the goaltender position, I love the “quiet” way he plays the position.

The way he treated this young man who lost his Mom to cancer will always be held close to my heart.

Looks like the Bolts are making deposits, not paying a thing. Go Lightning!

Not a big fan but anyone who beats the Canadians is good in my book. Kind of like any day the Yankees lose is a good day.
