One of the best ways I started off 2014 was to attend a hockey game. This wasn’t just any hockey game but seeing my favorite two teams play each other – the Montreal Canadians vs. the Dallas Stars. Who did I root for? My all around favorite of course, the Habs!
Granted, I have come to love the Dallas Stars but when the Habs come to town, I’m 100% Habs! This is a pretty special game as it only happens once every other year. The two teams typically rotate locations to play once a season.
I attended the game with one of my friends who lives in the area that I actually grew up with. Little did I know when I showed up at his house that he was going to cheer for the Stars. I should’ve known, this was going to get interesting. Hockey games just get getter with good fights. It may be my favorite part. This game, had two plus a penalty shot. The game was aggressive, high scoring and intense.In the video you can hear a guy yelling “Let’s go Stars”. This guy had to be the most annoying fan. I say this not because he was cheering for the Stars but because he couldn’t take it both ways. Directly behind us, we had a group from Ottawa cheering for the Habs (yes, I was very happy I was surrounded by Habs fans). Said Stars fan started giving Habs fan a hard time, Habs fans came back twice as hard in a joking, playful manner and he just got serious and pissed. What fun is that?!
As I was saying… look at these awesome fans! I see red!
Great company and love some Habs! Love it even more when they come and win! Can’t wait until the next hockey game!! What a great game!
Looks like such a fun night!!

Haha – that’s hilarious! Any other team, I would’ve been rooting for the Stars! Love this sport!
I know exactly how you feel! Although, as a Minnesota girl I absolutely cannot cheer for the Stars…much to my husband’s chagrin. We are more of a baseball house anyway, and you can bet that even as a die-hard Rangers fan, when the Minnesota Twins come to town I am 100% Twins!

Hockey in the South just isn’t the same as being in the North, is it? I too have become a huge Rangers fan. Going to the ballpark is always a good time! Thanks for stopping by!
How fun! We haven’t been to a hockey game in years! Like 10 or so. I think we need to change that. Great pictures, as always!
