Chazin brothers make history as Bell Centre Habs flag bearers

Two brothers from Côte Saint-Luc have now both enjoyed the thrill of skating around the Bell Centre ice as flag bearers for the Montreal Canadiens. Ethan Chazin (on the ice below) did so when the Anaheim Ducks faced  the Habs on October 25, 2008.  On Thursday, October 13, 2011, for the Habs home opener vs. Calgary, younger brother Ariel got the opportunity.

'The chances of being selected for the honour are rare in the number of Canadiens Fan Club members who sign up for the contest 'Skate with the team,' " says Neil Chazin, the proud dad. "Essentially the chances are a little better than winning the 6/49. There is no statistic for siblings to have completed this duty because it has never happened before."
 
Ariel is a nine year old Canadiens fan who plays hockey for the Atom A Canucks in Côte Saint-Luc and is  trying out for the Royal Vale School hockey team this year. Ethan (pictured below) plays hockey for the Hampstead/CSL/Mo-West Pee Wee CC Kings and will be trying out for the Royal West Academy hockey team.
 
So how do you distinguish two same sized hockey players  as flag bearers who are dressed identifcally without any identifiable markings like a name or number? Bright green almost floresenent laces!" explains Neil. " I found our later on that was not necessary because Ariel plays forward and the other lucky winner was a goalie DSC01169sm
 
"The experience was sureal. The Canadiens were nice enough to have my wife Perla and Ethan in attendance while Ariel prepared for the ritual. I  think this is a story that touches many at home, those children who dream about the opportunity and what it would be like as a flag bearer."

  4. What you said made a ton of sense. But, consider this, suppose you composed a catchier post title? I ain’t suggesting your content is not good, but what if you added a post title that makes people desire more? I mean MikeCohen.ca: Chazin brothers make history as Bell Centre Habs flag bearers is kinda plain. You might look at Yahoo’s front page and note how they create post headlines to grab viewers to open the links. You might add a video or a related picture or two to grab readers excited about everything’ve written. Just my opinion, it could bring your posts a little livelier.
