Guest mrsmarkov Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 Hi I am Mondouman. I am still sad to this day about the shortened career of Pierre Mondou. I loved to watch him play here in Halifax with the Voyageur. So difficult to choose an alltime favorite player, Cournoyer, Robinson, Flower, Carbo, Gainey, the list would go on forever. My oldest sister was in love with "Les Gros Bill" and she is the reason I became a habs fan in the late 60's. I could go on and on but this is ans intro. I don't know why it took me so long to join this forum but here I am at last. Yay we can never have enough Hab fans. Welcome . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mondouman Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 Welcome to the forum mondouman, Pierre was one of my favourite players. What do you remember about the tragic high sticking incident that ended Mondou's career? It was against Harford right? Also I seem to remember it being Lee Norwood's stick, but on wikipedia it says Ulf Samuellson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schapu Posted March 12, 2014 Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 Great story schapu. Can i ask about the meaning behind your name?? Welcome to the forum. thx for the warm welcome. the story behind the name is actually a bit complicated. as i did some capoeira back in high school i wanted to go with capoeiro, but as the nick was already taken, i changed it to capueiro (as the portugese pronounce the o as an u). some ten years ago or so a friend of mine was a bit drunk and could only go with schapu... et voilà Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jester29 Posted March 18, 2014 Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 welcome to all new members... on another note, I finally fulfilled my childhood-dream and made it to MTL, watching the Habs beating Ottawa...haha what a game as my NHL/Habs debut... can anyone recommend bars for a beer before games? Still around MTL till after the Wings game on April 5th... So, if you fancy a pint and a chat, let me know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only imagine how you must have felt coming back from that. I sure know I will never forget that game....I'm still in disbelief. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Habsfan__29 Posted April 3, 2014 Report Share Posted April 3, 2014 Greets to all Habs fan, Here's a little bit about my Habs fan history, when I was a kid my Dad used to take me to see the Habs play at the Atwater Forum. Those awesome memories and that picture are engraved in my mind forever! I got to see Dryden, Robinson, Lapointe, Bouchard etc... and to top it off with Scotty Bowman as head coach, what more could one ask for? Habs were Stanley Cup Winners and in those days we had muscle cars and the music was much better (just sayin'). Nowadays, things look good with Marc Bergevin, Michel Therien, the crew and the Team. Add to this a playoff spot with the series just around the corner, hopefully we can go as far as possible this year. With that said, nice to talk with you all in the forums.

Guest Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 Them were the days hatethoseleafs Yup. As far as i know,,,the only player to ever win the playoff MVP award in his debut, and then the rookie of the year the next season. He was just amazing during that playoff run. Like it was yesterday.

HabsRuleForever Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 Your avatar brings back some sweet memories for me. Of course whenever it was my turn to play goal, when I was younger, I would always imitate him when the puck was at the other end of the rink.

kinot-1 Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 #29 my all time favourite player. Good times. Them were the days hatethoseleafs Interesting little fact from a Dave Stubbs tweet: This day in 1979, Ken Dryden becomes 1st NHL goalie to win 30 or more games in each of his first 7 seasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerplay2009 Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 Your avatar brings back some sweet memories for me. Of course whenever it was my turn to play goal, when I was younger, I would always imitate him when the puck was at the other end of the rink. The impact he's had is awesome. I'm 20, so Dryden was retired long before I was born. But you know what? Me and all my friends imitated him still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course whenever it was my turn to play goal, when I was younger, I would always imitate him when the puck was at the other end of the rink. Yep, that famous stance he was well known for! Interesting little fact from a Dave Stubbs tweet: This day in 1979, Ken Dryden becomes 1st NHL goalie to win 30 or more games in each of his first 7 seasons Indeed! The impact he's had is awesome. I'm 20, so Dryden was retired long before I was born. But you know what? Me and all my friends imitated him still. Agreed with you powerplay2009, I did that also when it was my turn to play in nets back in the day just like Habs-Rule-Forever. Amazing how he has influenced generations of Hockey players and fans alike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
