Hockey Passion

Hockey is big in Canada...


















Fans take their hockey seriously...














None more seriously than my brother-in-law, Barry...














... who has a room in his house dedicated to his favorite hockey team, the Montreal Canadiens.














Barry has lived in Western Canada for more than 35 years...















But he hasn't forgotten his roots...














 Or his favorite team - the Montreal Canadiens!


















(He even has a piece of the old Montreal Forum in his private hockey shrine: one of the seats dismantled when the team moved to a new arena.)














Canadians do not usually show a lot of nationalistic fervor - but when it comes to sports, that's another matter!
