The Specs
Louise started to like hockey watching Mighty Ducks (cartoon) when she was a kid. By the time she was 16 she decided to choose a team to support and Habs were her first choice, since Montreal was always Lou’s favorite city in Canada. The first time she saw Habs live was January 4th, 2011 (Habs vs Penguins). Louise jokes that she has no clue how she ended up being an All Habs member, haha! All she knows is that she is really happy to be a part of the team. Louise is a graphic designer. She is currently working in a store, in the marketing department. She is responsible for doing the social media, marketing planning, the graphic design stuff and the products photography.

She loves animals. Louise has four dogs and one special little bunny called Puck (also an All Habs member).
What you must know
She used to have a band when she was 15/16. She was the leader singer and according to Lou, an Avril Lavigne wanna be… sad but true. She was a handball goalie; she broke all the fingers in her hand and once every three months her left wrist was in a cast. She warns that she is now learning figure skating, so probably other injuries are ahead. Louise collects toy arts, stuffed animals, and design books. She LOVES to cook, especially sweet things. And she has a Saint in her family, true story, her body is preserved in Italy.
What you probably didn’t know
When Louise was 4 years old, the preschool she went to offered ballet for girls and judo for boys. But she hated ballet, and cried for hours when her mom dressed her to go the ballet class. According to the school rules you had to do an extra class, so the solution was to let her do judo with the boys. She was the first girl in the school to fight judo, and she was good! She was always in 2nd place at her school championships. She said: “I always lost to a boy that was bigger than me. But it was cool, I used to love it. And I looked cute wearing a kimono.”
