When the highlight of the evening is the pregame ceremony, there’s a problem.
The Canadiens launched their home regular-season schedule Tuesday night at the Bell Centre with a simple, yet eloquent, celebration — something this organization has mastered over the years.
Quelle belle interprétation de «Je reviendrai à Montréal», un classique de Robert Charlebois sorti il y a 50 ans. Merci au Collège Vocal et à Gregory Charles pour ce beau moment!
