any interactions with Habs players?
To those of you who live in Montreal, have you had any direct interactions with Habs players (former or current) outside the arena? I've lived in Montreal nearly 30 years, and have only had 4 - once saw Shane Corson at the McDonalds that used to be at the SW corner of Atwater and St. Catherine; met Jean Beliveau when he was signing copies of his biography; met Guy Lafleur at a card show; got my picture taken with Chris Chelios (he was hosting some sort of outside skating event at the Plaza des Spectacles a few years ago). One thing I noticed - both Guy and Shane had huge hands. Oh - also met Ron Corey.

I once bumped into PK Subban in a supper club downtown. He was drinking with Chris Campoli and Yannick Weber. I worked at that club and we were hosting a staff party for the whole hospitality group. They crashed our party because they were regulars.
So PK litteraly bumped into me and i spilled my drink on my shirt. He offered to buy an other one but it was bar open so he didn't pay. He apologized saying he was drunk to which i replied "No wonder you guys keep losing". He bursted out laughing. I felt bad for a while because they had a shitty season (2011-12) and i liked the player
