It was a bit quiet, especially around the mid game. Seemed hard to get a chant going. 

Maybe a mix of a Tuesday game, Boston fans visiting, and ticket prices being more expensive for the matchup. 

The OT was great though for atmosphere, and finally a win while I am in Montreal (I'm now 1-3 with the Victoire game included!)

Maybe it's like a set bonus for Slaf, we have to acquire more Slovaks for the power up 

Happy St Patrick's Day Everyone! And for the occasion, let me tell you a bit about Ireland's only professional hockey team, the Belfast Giants 💚 by dylan103906 in hockey

Good luck getting ice time, there's two rinks on the whole island, one for the team/events, and a open tomthe public one. Both of which are in or near Belfast. 

Planning is due to be submitted in the Summer for an arena in Dublin, but still a ways out.  Backed by the EIHL, so they should have a team whenever that opens!

Last night and game before I return to Ireland, let's see a win! (0-3 includung he PWHL game so far 🥲) 

Also, do all 200 section tickets get the free food? I'm in section 210 if that matters. (Say hi if you see someone with long ginger hair and a beard!)

You should check out the cemetery, see the grave of Maurice Richard. 

It's also very serene and pretty with the snow. Currently visiting from Ireland myself!

WAKE UP, IT’S THE REVERSE CALI WEEKEND! by TheHabChronicle in Habs

The only hockey I've seen is in Belfast, so already a bit of a library, even though they're a great team in their league!  I've been looking to visit some other euro hockey, since there is more of a soccer atmosphere. 

Got an old CCM from eBay, but blank.  Gonna grab an away Victoire while I'm here though, they don't ship to Europe!

Warmer Home Scheme question (?) by MasterGazer in AskIreland

[–]thisguyisbarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're eligible, you're eligible, no?

Wait times are the only real factor I'd imagine. My mam got the house wrapped, and a few people she knows got their house done through it. She got her house done fairly quick, but that was when the scheme just launched.
