As of yesterday, the Go Habs Go scandal has been greatly exaggerated.

To recap, Montreal buses started writing “Go Habs Go” on their buses, but a complaint to the Office Québécois de la Langue Française caused STM to remove the words and put them in French: “Allez Montréal allez”. Let’s just say it’s a lot less chic…

I’m all for preserving the French language, but for such a trivial matter, I’m inclined to say: ” c’mon guys “…

I’m glad to see that the Bell Centre doesn’t give a damn about the OQLF’s directives. Why not? Because before the game, the “Go Habs Go” was quite visible on the giant screen.

I’m not the only one to have noticed.

The fans got into the game.

For long seconds, the crowd chanted the team cheer, even delaying Michel Lacroix’s speech.

Ah, and in addition to the GoHabsGo on the board, it’s also written on the towels.

The playoffs are back in Montreal!

For the first time since 2017, the Montreal amphitheatre is packed for the playoffs.

Now imagine if Carey Price had come out of the corridor with the torch.

The building would have exploded!

In any case, I missed the atmosphere of a packed Bell Centre in late April/early May.

The last time I’d experienced that, I was 15. I’m 22 now…

– You’ve got to do it.

– I can imagine.

– I love it.

– No, he isn’t.
