Habs 2009 Celebrations - Not as planned
Permalink Closed


Looks like the 2009 World Junior Championships won't be held in Montreal...putting a bit of a crimp in the Habs Centennial Celebration Plans....Instead they are giving it to Ottawa.

You know, when Vancouver hosted the junior championships this year I figured this was part of the will to get Vancouver primed for the Olympics.  Vancouver got the junior championships, NHL all-star game, NHL entry draft leading up to the 2010 year.


Montreal, the birthplace of organized hockey, get squat!  Goes to show how marginalized Montreal has become.   The slight we get from broadcasters, CBC, TSN, and now Hockey Canada.


Let's hope we still get the NHL All-Star game.  Or will Bettman slight us too?
