Sunday Habs Links: McCarron in the Memorial Cup final today

Montreal Canadiens

  • After the nine-goal blowout that eliminated the Quebec Remparts, we’re left with Michael McCarron as the prospect to watch. The Oshawa Generals will be facing the Kelowna Rockets today at 7 pm EDT. [Canadiens]

  • A raw interview with McCarron. “I don’t know if we’re the favourite [to win]…in the locker room we’d like to think so”. [Canadiens]

  • Here’s a recap of the 9-3 loss of the Remparts to the Rockets. Quite an emotional end to the season. [Pension Plan Puppets]

  • The Remparts fans didn’t take the loss well.

  • P.K. Subban is working with the Hockey de rue tournament to raise about $250,000 for the Montreal Canadiens Children’s Foundation. He talks about playing mini-sticks indoors as a kid, and how he and his brothers ruined a hallway and a ventilation system. [Montreal Gazette]
