Montreal Canadiens ticket and team info

Call them Le Club de Hockey Canadien, the Flying Frenchmen, the Habs, or Le Bleu-Blanc-et-Rouge. No matter how you spell it, this hockey club is the oldest franchise in the NHL and one of the elite teams today. Montreal Canadiens tickets to the Bell Centre are the hottest tickets in town. The Canadiens sell out every game, despite not winning a Stanley Cup in thirteen long years. In fact, they were the last Canadian team to take home the Cup. Fans can sense that this may be the year that that Habs take the Cup back to Canada for a mind-boggling 25th time.

The Star
Some say that Habs right winger Alexi Kovalev is starting to decline, but his magical performances on the ice tell the fans that he's still got it. The gifted puck-handler scored his 300th goal and 700th point last year with the Canadiens and is poised to keep adding to those totals. Kovalev was the first Russian to be taken in the first round of the NHL draft, and holds an even greater honor for his countrymen: in 1994 with the New York Rangers, he became one of the first four Russians to have their names engraved on the Stanley Cup. He's tasted victory before, and longs to hoist the Cup once more before he retires.

The Coach
This year Guy Carbonneau takes over full-time as head coach of the Habs. Regarded as one of the best defensive forwards to play the game, he's the 28th man to lead the Canadiens from behind the bench. He's got three Stanley Cup rings to his name, two of them as a center for the Habs, so he's no stranger to winning or to this historic team. It's a perfect fit. He's a local hero, and the fans are glad to have his leadership skills behind the bench. He's got the smarts, the talent, and that certain "je ne sais quoi" necessary to take a team all the way.

The Team
On offense, the Canadiens are quick, speedy, skilled and ready for life in the new NHL. You can be sure that Carbonneau will instill in the team the importance of a solid defense, and they have one of the best defensemen in the game in Andrei Markov. With just the right mix of youth, skill, and experience, the Montreal Canadiens are the hottest ticket in the NHL!
