Boo or not. The Habs are never flavour of the month in that town, never struggle to sell tickets or merch, don't have to discount their product to sell tickets no matter how bad they might be. Sounds like a pretty loyal fan base to me. There was nothing scientific about this list at all, so of course it's debatable, and even if it was scientific, of course you are going to be able to debate the nitty gritty that separates the top few teams...............but can anyone really argue there is a part of the world where the hockey culture and the passion for the home team is significantly better than in Montreal?
