LOL, big claims from someone who was just shooting down an argument because the person didnt have any actual facts to back it up.
Yes the Leafs have a large following outside of the Toronto area...but so do the Habs.
Habs get cheered just as loud, if not louder in other Canadian rinks.
Habs are Canada's team, simply for the fact that they are not Canada's most hated team.
People either love the Leafs...or hate them.
People either love the Habs...or cheer for them. You'll find very few people(besides Leafs fans) that hate the Habs. Yet, you'll find tons of people, other than Habs fans, who hate the Leafs.
Thats why the Habs are Canada's team, loved by lots, hated by few.
Again, the 24 cups doesnt hurt much either.
