Every team these days likes to break out the alternate hockey jerseys from time to time. No one likes to play in the same thing day in and day out and the fans don't particularly like watching the same old same old either. Following in their tradition of harkening back to the legends of hockey that have graced the Canadien's rink the team has chosen to use one of their oldest hockey jersey designs for their alternate jersey.
The red and white striped design doesn't have the now classic C and H emblem all of the other Montreal jerseys have but it does show one interesting fact:
The Canadian flag, with the Maple Leaf design, was inspired by this hockey jersey's emblem and the emblem of the Toronto Maple Leafs. Pretty cool, huh?
