Before tonights game between The Capitals and Les Habitants, Montreals fans are rallying outside of The Bell Centre against Headshots. But are they against cheap hits on Sydney Crosby or cheap hits on Max Pacioretty? Most likely it's the latter of the two.
And the folks over at have an interesting point about this protest. They bring up the question about how dedicated the fans are to the cause; Empty seats send a stronger message than angry fans entering the stadium and buying a few beers and enjoying a great match-up. And of course, Caps coach Bruce Boudreau had something to say, "I don't want to get into a controversy, but what if that was Hal Gill that hit David Krejci? I don't think there would be a protest going on here today."
But at least we can't say the Habs aren't people of action. When they're not protesting, they're calling the Mounties on Zdeno Chara.
