Chunkylover 26 Report post Posted September 29, 2009 If there are worse sports fans on earth than Montreal Canadien fans I would like to see them. It always "We won 26 cups". No one mentions that they had the upper hand on every team in the league up until the 70's when they had first choice of every Quebec born player. Imagine if Toronto had first choice of Ontario born players. Or if Detroit had first pick of Michigan born players. I dont count any Montreal Cup victories before 1980. I don't like sounding like "sour grapes" but I've often wondered if the Habs Cups, which they certainly earned, should have an asterisk highlighting the advantage they had. Kind of like how they complained when the Wings won 62 in a season that there should be an asterisk because they played two more games than the Habs team that won 60.
