I was just talking to my wife about this yesterday and didn't have an answer, not even one to bullshit. Why the hell are the Canadiens called the Habs? I can see the Devils being the Dev, or Capitals being the Caps, where the hell did Habs come from? Or is that another made up word from you neighbors to the north? Was it so cold one winter that you couldn't say Canadiens and as your teeth chattered away all that came out was "Habs?" Just wondering?
