But I found it long/repetitive at times and I would have liked to see the Habs go with something more dynamic, more Vegas Golden Knights. Wouldn’t you?
Patrik Laine in particular was at the heart of the celebrations. He didn’t just stand out because of his jacket, but because fans applauded him as if he were Carey Price.

Once again, Habs fans have shown they know how to do things right. And for Patrik Laine, who has come a long way and won’t be able to play hockey for the next few months, it must have been special.
For his fiancée, at least, it was. And she wasn’t afraid to say so on Instagram.

The next few months won’t be easy for Laine, who will have to recover from his knee injury. We’ve seen that he’s still a long way from a return to action and has a long way to go.
Overtime
– Retirement awaits.
