Rideout also takes every opportunity to poke fun at the Toronto Maple Leafs. A tongue-in-cheek look at what it takes to be a fan of the Montreal Canadiens.

This book was not written by a professional author, detached and merely an observer of the Canadiens. This is really just a love letter from a fan to the team that he loves. Not everyone will enjoy this book, but if you are a Habs fan (from anywhere, not just Newfoundland), you'll appreciate this book. I have my own memories of the Habs, both joyful and painful, and am a devout, fanatic of the Canadiens, so it is as nice to read of someone else's relationship with the Habs.
