“Worst presentation in Habs history”: Geoff Molson insulted at 2023 opening game
Auteur: Michael JohnsonThis morning, it’s finally the start of the Canadiens’ training camp.
What this means is that the guys are about to experience the most unpleasant day of camp: the physical tests. Rookies who did it last week won’t have to do it again, though.
Tomorrow, training begins… and next week, we’ll have preparatory games.
But today isn’t just a good day for those who want to look to the future. Those who like to look back a little also have the chance, this morning, to check out the first two episodes of the rebuilding series, on Crave.
I watched both episodes and it’s clear that the Habs are really taking us behind the scenes. Not only do we see aspects of the dressing room, but we also see the people who work for the Habs on other levels.
The more you watch, the more you realize that Geoff Molson isn’t on the show by chance. We see a lot of him (even at home, to a point) and we see what he wants to see from his club.
This scene between Geoff Molson and this “fan” in Episode 2 is so rough

We see the owner say a very unsentimental “thank you” before leaving. It almost sounded staged, such was the doggedness of the comment… even though everyone is entitled to their opinion.
So Mr. Molson didn’t achieve his goal. That night, he wanted the ceremonies to earn him rave reviews in the newspapers the next morning (as he repeated throughout episode #2), but that didn’t happen.
There’s more than meets the eye in this series (which is as it should be, given the title’s focus on rebuilding), and the interaction at the heart of my text is a good example. We also see a bit more of the personalities of several people in the organization. I recommend it to fans.
My review of the first 2 episodes of the Habs @CraveCanada series (no spoilers):
– Don’t love the fact that they took a whole eppy for a pre-season game vs Ottawa, but it is what it is
– Love the insight into Groupe CH as a business, pretty honest about ticket prices being… pic.twitter.com/qm0DA7VxLZ– HFTV (@HFTVSports) September 18, 2024
