swimmerpuck Posted June 7, 2010 Report Share Posted June 7, 2010 Congrats to 31StPatrickRoy! And rats, had I only waited I could have won those season tickets for becoming the 30,000 member. Just kidding.........this is a great place to be if you are a Habs fan. I'm motivated to be a part of the Canadiens family because of the following: I was a hockey fan growing up and when my parents asked me way back when where I'd like to go on a trip I chose Montreal and specifically tickets to see the Montreal Canadiens at the old forum - I loved the experience; believe it or not I wrote a term paper on the Montreal Canadiens also way back when; I find the history and culture surrounding the team to be extremely interesting as there is no other organization like it; through the years I've had different players I've enjoyed watching starting with Guy Lapointe and Serge Savard way back when to more recently I've enjoyed the Cube, Streit, Hammer, Kovy, Saku, Komi, Squid and many others in between; I consider the Montreal organization to be one of complete class and nothing to me was more exemplary of that than the night of December 4, 2009. Having said all that my goal is to get back to Montreal and see what was the old forum and to experience a game at the Bell Centre. The ovation this team received during the 6th game against Pittsburgh still gives me shivers, makes me smile and makes me proud of this team.

How come i see some posters in the 40K's??? Did we get a big overnight run of rookies?? Hmmmmmm................so this happened some time ago and the moderators are just now getting around to announcing this milestone? What's the projected date for member # 40,000's announcement. I'm keeping my eyes peeled to be member # 50,000. There's gotta be a huge windfall waiting. My congrats to member 30,000 still holds true and I'll offer a late premature congrats to number 40,000.

How come i see some posters in the 40K's??? Did we get a big overnight run of rookies?? The forum has changed over a few times from different platforms. The last time it changed over, all the membership numbers changed and the administrators weren't able to figure out how to change them back so they just left it as is. As for the member count, 30000 is the correct count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beaubie Posted June 7, 2010 Report Share Posted June 7, 2010 30 000th member so you say, well congrats to him anyway. I was looking on the Canadiens website and there's a section that has links to some threads here. I saw 'Battle Between the Pipes' clicked on it and the rest was history. Once I knew the place existed, living in Toronto and basically being the lone ranger with hockey amongst my friends, this place did become a relief. Even just to see what others had to say.

FanFromAB Posted June 8, 2010 Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 welcome to you #30000. The reason that I joined was that I noticed that a lot of posters on here know their hockey and offer great insight to the game! I love asking questions here and I especially love getting into it with certain members! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FirstStar Posted June 8, 2010 Report Share Posted June 8, 2010 Welcome to the forum! I joined so I could talk hockey with fellow habs fans. It's also a great place in the offseason, specially during free agency frenzy, we may not hear it 1st here, but it all ends up here in the end. Best place to get all of your Habs info.
