The bar you are in should have the Montreal game on the local CBC feed, unless its a stupid Leafs national broadcast game.

They always run the national feeds before the Canucks game. If they aren't running the game on CBC, most pubs have Center Ice, they'll change the channel to whatever you like.

Seriously, they are really accomodating in Whistler.

I was at Mahoney's or Maloney's on Robson downtown, had a great time, good food lots of different beers, and picked up some hot asian chick at the end of the night I would recommend that Bar to anyone, other then the fact we lost to the Devils, that was early last year.

I always stopped in at the Frog n' Firkin' on Broadway on my way home from work. The bartender was a huge Habs fan and always showed their games on the big screen at the bar.

One more thing, if you hit Earls on Broadway and Laurel, they will switch to any game you want if you sit at the bar.

I've never heard of that poster you are referring too.

As much as it sucks, the Sharks Club by GM Place has a lot of TVs and you should be able to see the Habs there.

The Charlatan on Commercial too is pretty Habs friendly.

Any chain restaurant, Earls, Cactus Club, etc. has satellite TV and a variety of games.

I think the Frog and Firkin is gone now, I lost my Habs Hi-Def virginity there. RIP!

As for Whistler, I have no idea. There has to be at least one place, in this day and age even crappy bars in Chilliwack have satellite TV and the center ice package, it's easier than ever to see the Habs wherever you are.

I still think the Sharks Club is the best bet though, it's just not my kind of bar, generic sports bar, like you're at Boston Pizza, but lots of TVs and hockey.
