Ah, well here in Canuckistan, (Canada) we LOVE our hockey. It's a religion really.

Les Canadiens de Montréal (or Montreal Canadiens) refers to when the French first arrived in Canada. They were called Les Canadiens, which is quite different from being 'Canadian' as we are now. This was before the English arrived and beat the French in a famous battle.. Les Canadiens refers to these french colonists pre English arrival.

Which brings me to Habs. Habs is short for Les Habitants. Which means 'the habitants of Canada, the newly found land'. Again, referring to Canada, pre English arrival.

Go Habs Go!
