Nos Habitants have the top-ranked jersey in sports, according to ESPN Uni Watch Power Rankings.

This past Thursday, August 23, 2012, ESPN released an in-depth look at the best uniforms in professional sports. The extremely comprehensive list ranks uniforms from all 122 teams in the four major North American sporting leagues (NFL, MLB, NBA, and NHL) in order from most cringe-inducing to nicest.

Rankings claiming, "This isn't just a perfect hockey uniform set -- it's a perfect uniform set, period."

Yeah, I'm sure thats gonna work out well for you ...

Once the Buds (or whoever else you face in the first round) knocks you out in the first round, you and the rest of poutine nation will disappear, again ...

 

[exploration]

i love your women in montreal but i cant stand some of your obnoxious fans. i'm talking about the ones that have lived in T.O. all their life, have never been to montreal, doesnt speak a lick of french but their twice removed cousin's sister's dog's aunt has some form of connection to the Habs and therefore this gives them the right to saw they have a bloodline as a hab fan. why cant they just be a normal fan like everyother team and get rid of the need to prove why they are hab fans.

 

[gladheateher]

This Saturdays game looks to be a first round preview - cant wait to see the Buds deliver a good ass kicking to montreal and send "Les-habitants" and the rest of poutine nation into hiding

expect riots and vandalism in montreal after being bounced in the first round

 

[lovelatinas]

The Habs can't even beat the Devils, now losing 3-2. Carey Price sucks right now.
