there IS a specific hate for the habs, and it’s layered, and some people (the anglos) WILL gaslight you about it

some people hate the Habs because of original 6 rivalries, and that’s respectable, you know? (some) fans of the leafs and the bruins are allowed to hate the habs, even though they’re wrong, as long as they’re not weird about it. i suspect there are some folks who also dislike the habs on O6 (or O1 lol) grounds—as in, the Habs are so old and have so many championships that a newer fan of the sport might decide they’re the boring default option. that is also incorrect and feels silly to even type out, but i can see it happening.

when habs fans talk about the bias against Montreal, however, we’re not talking about leafs fans or bruins fans or newbies just feeling out the sport. and it’s difficult to explain fully without getting shut down in english speaking spaces, because it’s rooted in xenophobia about quebec. like, to truly understand why people are so fucking weird about the habs, you literally have to study a BUNCH of history of why people are so fucking weird about quebec, and you could get a degree in that.

The best captaincy lineup in a minute

That's actually a beautiful lineup I have tears in my eyes 😭😭

Amsterdam to Catalonia, an idea carried in a suitcase.

The rest is legacy. ⭐️
