Last June, Kent Hughes and the Habs acquired Alex Newhook from the Colorado Avalanche. This week, the CH's new forward visited the Bell Centre and the Bleu-Blanc-Rouge facilities for the first time. You can tell he's looking forward to donning such a prestigious uniform. Obviously, [it's] a franchise with so much history, and seeing all that history in the dressing room definitely motivates us to get back to that winning culture. I didn't know how many numbers have been retired here. I started with 18, which is the number I wore in Colorado, then 19 and 16, which are also retired, so I came across 15. I'm excited to wear it again. For sure, finding a number isn't the easiest thing in Montreal!
