NHL Montreal Canadiens 100th Anniversary
Loonie And Stamp Set
The numbers dont lie, 761 players, 54 Hall of famers, 24 Stanley Cups. Over their 100 seasons thus far, the Montreal Canadiens have defined greatness on their way to becoming the most successful franchise in hockey history. From legends like Howie Morenz, Maurice Richard and Jean Beliveau, to Guy Lafleur, Bob Gainey, Patrick Roy and every other player in between, the tradition of excellence now synonymous with the Habs was built on the blood and sweat of all the men who whore the jersey with honor and pride. The gold standard by which all NHL teams are measured, the Canadiens are the only hockey franchise to truly belong in a conversation of the great teams in sports. As one century of Canadiens hockey draws to a close, a new one is set to begin based on what has always been the hallmark of the team--winning.
