1 The Winning Goal THE CANADIENS IN THE COMMUNITY Report

2 The Winning Goal The Montreal Canadiens Hockey Club is more than an accomplished and legendary sports organization. The team also takes steps to expand its image locally, and it gets involved directly in the community through its Foundation and various community programs that are aimed at helping to improve the quality of life for youth throughout Quebec and offering support to people across the province.

3 President s Message The Canadiens have long been a source of inspiration, joy and pride for fans of all ages but, more particularly, for the youngest among us. We see it in the smile of a hospitalized children as their favourite Canadiens player enters their room for a visit. We also see it in the faces of kids who enthusiastically skate on our BLEU BLANC BOUGE rinks. And it s evident through the excitement shown by thousands of fans of every age who fill the stands to watch their team practice, as they proudly wear their Canadiens gear. These are just a few examples of the energy and positivism that reign each year when we launch our community activities and programs. The role our company plays outside the arena is one we take seriously it is a role that fits with our objective of actively participating in the development of healthy lifestyles. Throughout the season, our players and their spouses, as well as our hockey personnel, ambassadors, alumni and all of our employees contributed to the success of hundreds of initiatives and community groups whose raison d être is to improve the lives of underprivileged children. Thanks to the support and generosity of all partners and fans, the Montreal Canadiens Children s Foundation has, since its creation, donated more than $12 million to some 425 organizations working for the well-being of underprivileged children across Quebec. Over and above its support of community groups, the Montreal Canadiens Children s Foundation is the driving force behind the BLEU BLANC BOUGE community rinks, with the fourth rink to be unveiled in the LaSalle borough this coming winter. More than 45,000 young people have skated on these community multisport and refrigerated rinks since the project was launched in Over the next season, we plan to continue our community initiatives with an increased sense of sensitivity and generosity, inspired by the commitment shown by our heroes and the tireless support of our fans and partners.

6 BLEU BLANC BOUGE Community Rinks Introduced as part of the Canadiens centennial celebrations throughout the season, the BLEU BLANC BOUGE program consists of building and donating outdoor multi-purpose ice rinks for generations to come. These rinks make it possible for a large number of children to enjoy a state-of-the-art facility while engaging in healthy physical activity. Built according to NHL standards, the infrastructure provides the necessary versatility for other sports to be played according to the time of year. Predominantly used for ice hockey from November to mid-march, the rinks become an ideal playground for disciplines such as basketball, soccer, ball-hockey and other types of games during the spring, summer and fall months. The success of the BLEU BLANC BOUGE program comes from the dedication and drive of community organizers at various levels business people, local community groups, schools, volunteers, companies and the City of Montreal s borough divisions involved in the program. The Montreal Canadiens Children s Foundation is proud to team up with all of these players and to offer a truly unique program that is contributing to the quality of life and health of thousands of children. FACT SHEET Since the opening of our first outdoor rink in 2009, over 45,000 kids used the new playgrounds. More than half of them as part of a supervised activity either by their school or a community group. BLEU BLANC BOUGE subsidized over 14,000 hours of free access to this unique facility. Each winter month, the rinks are used by 7,000 kids for ice sports.

With over 100 years of history, the franchise taps into its resources to spark interest among Quebec s youth in school.

20 THE WILL TO SUPPORT GOOD HEALTH From the very beginning, each player who has worn the Montreal Canadiens uniform has lent support to sick children and their families. Moved by the youngsters ordeals, the players have brought comfort and times of joy.

21 Hockey Fights Cancer The Montreal Canadiens participate each year in the NHL s Hockey Fights Cancer campaign. In an effort to raise awareness for cancer care, the game of October 30 was dedicated to a group of children from Leucan, an organization that supports the well-being, cure and rehabilitation of children with cancer, while also providing support for their families. More than 70 Leucan youngsters attended the Canadiens game, thanks to the generosity of corporate luxury suite owners at the Bell Centre. As a first-rate partner and supporter of this initiative, RDS offered a unique opportunity to the youngsters, by inviting them to participate in various aspects of the game s TV broadcast. The best surprise was yet to come when Mathieu Darche, Josh Gorges and P.K. Subban met the special Leucan guests after the game. The NHL also participated, donating $10,000 to Leucan. DONors - suites A heart-felt thank you to the individuals and corporations who played host to the children of Leucan and their families in their private suites. Josh Gorges Harvest Gionta Hospital Visits For the 46 th consecutive year, Canadiens players went out to meet young patients at the CHU Sainte-Justine and the Montreal Children s Hospital. Honouring this annual tradition, the players took a grand tour of the two hospitals providing encouragement and a few moments of enjoyment for 300 children and their families. Geoff Molson Blood Donor Clinic Honouring this annual tradition, players, management and Canadiens Alumni teamed up for the 29 th Canadiens Annual Blood Donor Clinic to benefit Héma-Québec. This year some 690 generous donors came to Windsor Station s Salle des pas perdus to give the gift of life as members of the organization took turns to meet, greet and thank the donors for their generosity.

22 THE WILL TO CONTRIBUTE TO WELL-BEING The Montreal Canadiens Hockey Club shares its passion for hockey with every fan young and old. The team also dedicates time and resources to youth, their families and people in need. The will to help and to provide support lies at the heart of the team s commitments.

23 OLD BREWERY MISSION Hal Gill and Réjean Houle served Thanksgiving dinner to more than 400 people at the Old Brewery Mission on October 11. For over 100 years, the Old Brewery Mission has been providing homeless men and women in Montreal with essential emergency services as safe accommodation, nourishing meals, warm showers and clean clothes. Angela Webber La Grande Guignolée The Canadiens invited Bell Centre fans who attended the December 4, 2010 game to bring a non-perishable item, as part of a special collection for the Grande Guignolée des Médias. The goods were collected prior to the San Jose game by the spouses of Habs players and by volunteers with Moisson Montreal, Sun Youth and the Saint-Vincent-de-Paul Society. All collected items were then handed over to community groups assisting needy Montrealers. Santa s Christmas baskets Spouses of Montreal Canadiens players generously support the work of Normand Brault, a youth centre psychologist and educator. Mr. Brault answers the wishes of hundreds of children who do not ordinarily receive a visit from Santa. Habs spouses purchased and wrapped gifts for more than 60 children at the Bell Centre, prior to the December 16, 2010 game. Stéphanie Darche THE CANADIENS IN THE COMMUNITY 23

24 THE WILL TO DEVELOP HOCKEY As a professional hockey club, the Montreal Canadiens make it their duty to be actively involved in the development of hockey and encourage minor hockey players to pursue their dream. Tomorrow s professional hockey players are today s kids who play the game of hockey on rinks and ponds across the province and the Canadiens are proud to support them throughout their progression.

25 LRF Program Launched in partnership with Hockey Quebec, the Learn, Respect and Fun (LRF) program aims at supporting and promoting the growth and development of minor hockey in Quebec. Close to 16,000 young hockey players from Novice to Bantam hockey leagues registered in the LRF program in , and signed a contract with Bob Gainey, co-founder of the program. In doing so, players and coaches pledged to promote good sportsmanship, moral values and team spirit. The LRF program features two main activities for its members - the Tim Hortons Coaching Day and the Esso Minor Hockey Festival. Esso Minor Hockey Festival Over 32 teams from each of Hockey Quebec s 14 administrative regions enjoyed a hockey game on the Bell Centre ice as part of the 2011 Esso Minor Hockey Festival. Tim Hortons Coaching Day This annual gathering provides 500 pre-novice to Bantam hockey coaches from across Quebec with a unique opportunity to attend a training session with the Montreal Canadiens coaching staff and specialists and technicians from Hockey Quebec. Several aspects of the game were taught including goaltending, improvement of the basic skills, physical preparation, decision making and execution in one-on-one situations. MINOR HOCKEY DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS SKILL CAMP These five half-day camps were held at the Bell Centre, and offered Atom and Pee Wee players of both sexes an opportunity to improve various aspects of their game, including skating, stickhandling, shooting and off-ice training methods. Pierre Groulx Canadiens 3-on-3 league The summer season s top highlight for some 400 kids was a 3-on-3 league at the Bell Sports Complex in Brossard. The youngsters were grouped into 42 teams, and played 3-on-3 hockey games, between May and August a great opportunity to further develop their hockey skills, both individually and collectively. Montreal Canadiens Hockey School Held during the summer months, this hockey school for Novice to Pee Wee kids was attended by 725 young hockey players who had an opportunity to improve their hockey skills, thanks to the precious coaching advice of some professional sports consultants. The young players also had a chance to spend quality time with some Canadiens players and coaches. Erik Cole THE CANADIENS IN THE COMMUNITY 25

26 THE WILL TO SUPPORT THE COMMUNITY All members of the Montreal Canadiens organization, from upper management to players and their spouses, share the common goal of lending a helping hand to the community and make a difference in the children s lives.

27 A DEDICATED COMPANY Our organization is staffed by a talented and dedicated group of people from various sectors who are filled with a sincere desire to contribute to the well-being of the community, and it is this spirit that underlines our involvement with numerous local groups. Whether it's about finding a cure for a disease, supporting research, alleviating the suffering or stamping out poverty, or encouraging healthier lifestyles, for us, it's all about getting involved outside the arena. There were many memorable initiatives during the year, including the support Michael Cammalleri showed towards Quebec military personnel through his Cammy's Heroes program, a visit by P.K. Subban to a children's hospital in Port-au-Prince, to support the Hockey For Haiti program, as well as the involvement of Gill, Price and Moen with the Movember initiative. Who could forget Anne Gill's marvellous performance during the Dancing with the Stars evening for the Just For Kids Foundation, or the thousands of kilometres travelled by many members of the organization during the 3 rd running of the Grand Défi Pierre Lavoie, as well as the golf tournaments and fundraising evenings, with profits going to the CHU Sainte-Justine Foundation, the Fondation des petits trésors, the Fondation En cœur, Quebec's Special Oympics and many others.

28 Support to the community Centraide fundraising campaign To mark the launch of Centraide s annual fundraising campaign, about 40 employees of the Montreal Canadiens Hockey Club, the Bell Centre and evenko joined Réjean Houle and Youppi! in the streets of Montreal as part of the traditional umbrella march. This special event helped raise $169,349 for Centraide s 2010 fundraising campaign. Staff from the Montreal Canadiens, Bell Centre and evenko Skate Drive On February 12, the Montreal Canadiens and players spouses held their inaugural new and used skates drive at the Bell Centre on the same evening that the Habs were facing the Toronto Maple Leafs. That night, Canadiens fans donated more than 150 pairs of skates that were then distributed to Chomedey en Forme, Saint-Simon-Apôtre School and to the BLEU BLANC BOUGE rinks in the Saint-Michel and Montréal-Nord boroughs. Angela Webber The Goal is Green In launching its Goal is Green program in 2007, the Montreal Canadiens and the Bell Centre became industry leaders in environmental management and durable development among professional sports venues in North America. The Bell Centre obtained three certifications: level 3 of the ICI ON RECYCLE, which confirms a recycling and compost program that recycles at a rate of higher than 80%. Close to 25,000 meals are served annually at the Maison du Père and Tablée des chefs, thanks to food gathered and donated by the Bell Centre. The LEED certification, obtained in October 2009, recognizes the integration of durable development, while the ISO certification was granted in November Furthermore, the Bell Centre recently obtained a special recognition from RECYC-QUÉBEC. 28 THE WINNING GOAL

29 Donation in-kind program Each year, the Donation in-kind Program allows the Montreal Canadiens to help hundreds of non-profit community groups. The group receives a signed Canadiens item and then raises funds through an auction or a draw thus allowing these organizations to pursue their mandates. During the season, over 700 charitable organizations benefited from this program to raise in excess of $1 million for their respective causes.
