In 1967 the Montreal Canadiens were primed to make their mark on the hockey world. They had just won back-to-back Stanley Cups, and were looking to make it three. Montreal was at the highest the city would ever be — the financial capital of Canada, hosting Expo ‘67, the highlight of Canada’s centennial celebrations, a brand new subway system that surpassed Toronto’s (and still does), and the eyes of the entire world on them.
