I was in Montreal for the 2 weekend games. You would never have guessed he missed a full year.

Of course you were! Ever omnipresent.

That had to be fun! Do you get to do that often?

I've only seen one game at the Bell Centre. That was back in 2005 when I had a very long layover in Montreal.
The strangest thing is I cannot remember anything about the game. Just the taxi ride from the airport, walking around and marveling at how many strip clubs there appeared to be and I had a seat way up in the upper portion.
I liked it though because I had a great view of the whole ice. But I have no clue who they played or what happened. Must have been aliens.

I did get to see Michael Ryder's very first NHL game back in Oct. 2003 at the Corel Center.
They had this thing in Ottawa that if they scored 5 goals you could take your ticket to Pizza Pizza for a free slice the next day.

My brother went to school with Ryder as well and played minor hockey with him. It was pure coincidence that I'd see his first game.
I only was acquaintances with him. I was more interested in his sister  ;D

I seen about 10-12 games at the Corel Center in Ottawa from October-January.
Those bus rides to the Corel Center with fans were kind of fun.

TSN videos hate me since I'm not in Canada.

Booo! I hate it when websites do that.

This was part of the clip.
The other part was where guys in the sports studio interviewed Dylan DeMelo as he was out skating around during the pregame skate.
It was kind of fun. I enjoy the behind the scenes stuff.

Once or twice a year... usually before winter becomes a giant asshole.
I never saw a game in Ottawa, I was there for a few shows and remember it being a pain in the ass to get to.

I saw a bunch of games at the Forum in 75-78. My roommate was from Philly and always needed someone to watch his back because he insisted on wearing his Flyers jersey. Hadn’t seen a game since until I went to Chicago and St Louis to watch the Hawks and Blues play back to back games.
Are we having fun yet?

I love winter. Summer is overrated. I despise the humidity we get in July and August.

Not sure if any development has occurred around there since 2003-04. But at the time the Corel Center was basically out in the middle of nowhere.
There were a few times just an awful smell of skunk permeated the air. I've never experienced anything like it ;D

I hope he turns into a fucking superstar.
Habs didn't even give him one game this season.
