All Habs News: Anthem Silliness, Brent and Kelly Sopel

All Habs News — February 24, 2011

The Montreal Canadiens have waded into a truly ridiculous debate about the anthem at the Heritage Classic in Calgary.  The team made a formal complaint to the NHL following a childish article written by Francois Fournier, head of Sports at La Presse newspaper.

The Canadiens acquired Brent’s Sopel from the Atlanta Thrashers today. Brent’s wife Kelly authors a blog titled “Life of a Hockey Widow THE DAY-TO-DAY LIFE OF “THE SOPELS” AN NHL WIFE AND FAMILY.”

Off to Montreal He Goes…
“Sopes is VERY excited to be in Montreal! To be in the play-off race is what it’s all about. I know he will give his all when he steps on the ice each night, just like he’s always done. On Saturday night, when he steps on the ice, I will be the proud wife in the stands!! GO SOPES #55!”
