Montreal and Quebec in general have had poor experiences with sports teams, (Habs excluded).  They have had CFL, NHL and MLB teams all bolt from the province because the support locally and government wise is not there.  Government wise, big name sports teams help with tourism.  Toronto's team is financially secured as they are owned by the same people who own the Toronto Maple Leafs.  Vancouver is any ones guess why they could not make it...the name sucked they made a few bad draft picks and no one wanted to play in Vancouver.  I think Las Vegas would be a great town for basketball...has anything there ever failed.  It even made Wayne Newton a household name.

The last time the Maypole Laughs won was in 1967.  Curiously this was the year before expansion of the league.  When the league goes back to 6 teams then they might have a chance to win a conference final, but they will never win the Stanley Cup again.

well, shanny's not gay.  he has three kids and is married.   they lost due to datsyuk and manny legace. legace's failure to quit letting in bs goals lead to his demise in the playoffs.  the team is solid and capable of winning.  edmonton progressed and is going to the second round against colorado.  the team was flat and not fast enough.

Yes, they were an NHL expansion team the same year the Washington Capitals arrived (1974). They had really brightly-coloured uniforms and an Indian scout on a horse as their logo. Unfortunately, the Scouts only lasted two seasons in KC before moving to Denver to become the Colorado Rockies. The franchise remained there until 1982 when they moved to New Jersey to become the Devils who reside there still. Intriguing history, eh?

Le hockey sur glace a sans doute connu son apogée en 1992 pour les Jeux Olympiques d'hiver.\nDepuis il n'a pu ou su se "professionnaliser".Ces seules recettes n'ont été que les subventions de municipalités qui varient au fils du temps et la plupart du temps ne servent qu'à combler des déficits chroniques.\nPourtant c'est un sport qui est très prisé par les jeunes mais très peu médiatisé. Il aurait fallu que la télévision s'y intéresse.\nIl suffit de voir le Basket qui se relevé depuis qu'il bénéficie d'une meilleure couverture médiatique mais surtout grâce à la révélation d'une star Tony Parker. En France le hockey forme de très bons jeunes et si l'un d'eux devenait une star en NHL peut-être que.\nMais le principale problème est que ce sport coûte très cher : équipements, infrastructures, déplacements ... et qu'il n'a pas de recettes.

In 1924, at the convincing of Boston grocery magnate Charles Adams, the NHL decided to expand into the United States. As a long-time hockey hotbed, Boston was a natural for the NHL's first American team.\n\n \nLogo (1927-1932)Adams hired Art Ross as general manager. Ross would stay with the team for 30 years, including four separate stints as coach. Adams directed Ross to come up with a nickname that would portray an untamed animal displaying speed, agility and cunning. Ross came up with "Bruins," after the brown bear. The nickname also went along with the team's colors of brown and gold (brown became black in 1939), which came from Adams' grocery chain, Brookside Stores. The team finished dead last in its inaugural season, but rebounded to finish just a point out of the playoffs a year later

Habs is an abbreviation of "les habitants," the informal name given to the original settlers of New France, dating back to the 17th Century. So it seems a natural nickname for the Montreal Canadiens, established in 1909 as a French-Canadian hockey team appealing to the city's Francophone community. \n\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In 1924, Madison Square Garden owner Tex Rickard was falsely told by someone that the "H" in the logo of the Montreal Canadiens hockey team stood for "habitant", a French word that in those days was used to denote the farmers of Quebec. Rickard was told that the French players on the team came from the farms and that they were therefore "habitants" or "habs". At the time, the Canadiens were recognized as the French Canadian team of Montreal as opposed to the Montreal Maroons, the English Canadian team. In reality, the team logo of the "C" wrapped around the "H" stands for Club de Hockey Canadien. In 1917, at the founding of the NHL, the team changed its name to that from the previous Club Athlétique Canadien.\n\nSo there you go - the definition of the Habs, and what the H stands for in the Canadiens' logo!

Do you mean Trumbull, CT? (It helps if you spell the name correctly.)\nChris Drury, former NHL Rookie of the Year and Olympic medalist, and Chris Soule, Olympic skeleton athlete, were both from Trumbull.
