from Dave Dye of the Detroit News,
The question now is whether the Canadiens can bring the Stanley Cup Finals back to Montreal to complete the celebration.
No NHL club has won more Cups than the Habs’ 24. The Maple Leafs have 13, the Red Wings 11.
What’s more, the only North American pro sports team with more championships than the Canadiens is the Yankees with 26.
This is an organization steeped in tradition with the greatest dynasties in NHL history. The Canadiens won five straight Cups under Toe Blake from 1956-60. They also won six titles in nine years from 1965-73 before Scotty Bowman coached them to four straight from 1976-79.
more plus a little CBA talk, most of which has been covered on KK.
