I could find only two things...I'll link the sites so you can check for yourself.\nGood luck\nRoyal William, first steamship to cross the Atlantic wholly under steam power, 1833 \nhttp://members.shaw.ca/saladgoat/canada.html#Achievements\n\nIncluded in the Canadian line-up was George A. Barber who for many years worked tirelessly to improve the sport in the province of Upper Canada (Ontario).  To-day Barber is regarded as the Father of Canadian cricket.  In 1827 he was also largely responsible for introducing cricket into Upper Canada College in 1830\n\nhttp://www.canadiancricket.org/index.jsp?page_id=usa\n\nGood Luck

In 1924, Madison Square Garden owner Tex Rickard was falsely told by someone that the "H" in the logo of the Montreal Canadiens hockey team stood for "habitant", a French word that in those days was used to denote the farmers of Quebec. Rickard was told that the French players on the team came from the farms and that they were therefore "habitants" or "habs". At the time, the Canadiens were recognized as the French Canadian team of Montreal as opposed to the Montreal Maroons, the English Canadian team. In reality, the team logo of the "C" wrapped around the "H" stands for Club de Hockey Canadien. In 1917, at the founding of the NHL, the team changed its name to that from the previous Club Athlétique Canadien.\n\nSo there you go - the definition of the Habs, and what the H stands for in the Canadiens' logo!

At present, the 1970 Brazilian team is thought of as the best. So far, I have seen nothing of this 2006 team to show they are as good as that one, but they certainly have the potential to be.

I'm a Pittsburgh Penguins fan! I think they should've done much better with Sidney Crosby, Lemieux healthy, Gonchar, Leclair, and Zigmund Palffy. They should be one of the elites now.

The Vancouver Canucks, the Edmonton Oilers, the Calgary Flames, the Montreal Canadiens, and especially the Ottawa Senators. Because they aren't the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Then you have the hockey teams across the north... And soccer in Suburbia. Volleyball seems to be more coastal.\n\nI couldn't find any websites on it though. But I would guess that since sports were popular long before the days when travel was easy... it has to do with weather.

The was also something called the "Rover" who played between the forwards and defencemen. I remember reading this after wondering why the early Ottawa team was called the "Silver Seven" not six. In those days you were not allowed to pass the puck forward(kind of like rugby), the Rover was a fast guy who could carry the puck up ice, as well as get back fast to help in his own end. When the game moved indoors in the 1920s this position was dropped due to the size of some arenas.

Habs is an abbreviation of "les habitants," the informal name given to the original settlers of New France, dating back to the 17th Century. So it seems a natural nickname for the Montreal Canadiens, established in 1909 as a French-Canadian hockey team appealing to the city's Francophone community. \n\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
