Hockey.

Montréal Canadiens. Edmonton Oilers.

Other stuff too.




Hal Gill: "We really came to love Montreal as a family"  

Gill joked that what he’ll miss most about Montreal is poutine. In fact, it’s the fans, to whom he offered a merci, en français, that will remain with him long past his playing days.


“When you come into a big market like this, you don’t know whether people are going to jump on you. They can be very honest at times,” he said, a wonderful way of describing this city’s famously fickle fans. “But they were always good to me.


“I understand that fans want to see pretty plays and a beautiful saucer pass across the ice, but I think they understood my game, and I’m grateful for that.


“It really allowed me to thrive and do what I wanted to do as a player, so I think that was the biggest thing for me – sharing what I do well and having them appreciate it.”
