While there are always Montreal Canadiens jerseys to be found in and around the Bell Centre, one of the joys of the team’s playoff run has been seeing its colours spread across the city.
From the Biodome to the back of a firetruck and from the skyline to street level, The Gazette’s photographers have captured scenes from a city where Canadiens mania is even stronger than usual.
