A headline from the Montreal Gazette in 1982 because it was three years since the Canadiens had won the Cup. Talk about high expectations once upon a time. lol
Habs coach Marty St. Louis, episode 2 of The Rebuild (S2):
“There are days that I felt I’ll never get another game in this league. There are days I thought I’d never fucking score another goal in this league. As a coach, and I’m emotional cause I’m real, I’m not afraid to be emotional, as a coach sometimes this fucking league is hard. Sometimes you fucking feel you’re never gonna win another game in this league.”
“I’m telling you right now: the game, life, sometimes it’s not fair. You just gotta fucking keep pushing.”
If the return for Dobson is 2x1st plus Heineman (as we’re hearing) I only have one thing to say:
THANK YOU FLAMES!
16 OA is from the Monahan trade
Heineman is from the Toffoli trade
NEWS: The Montreal Canadiens are acquiring Noah Dobson in a sign-and-trade with the New York Islanders. Dobson gets an eight-year contract extension carrying a $9.5M AAV as part of the trade.

It's practically destiny.
Patrick J. Kelly, the namesake for the ECHL Kelly Cup, was a player for the Trois-Rivières Lions from 1957 to 1959 in the Quebec Hockey League, a provincial minor pro league.
68 years later, the ECHL Lions are three wins away from the championship named after their local alumni.

@HabsOnReddit Arpon explained it in Friday's podcast: the AHL champs are almost always won by a team of AHL lifers, not a team of young NHL prospects. They're usually older, bigger, heavier, and just have more experience than a team like the Rocket, and it shows.
