Amy
Amy is the manager and lead contributor of the Habs Tweetup website. She is a professional voice actor and is the vocal talent behind All Habs OUT LOUD. We try to overlook her fascination with the Orange & Black and take solace that she is almost equally passionate about the Canadiens. Her favourite NHL player is Martin Biron. When she's not watching hockey or traveling to a Habs Tweetup, Amy can be found watching other sports like football, baseball, and tennis. She also enjoys reading, watching movies, gardening, and performing as a bellydancer.

Pier-Luc helps make things work. He is also a regular at Habs Tweetups. Some other ways to describe him: Internet Junkie, Audiophile, Mobile Enthusiast, Opensource Advocate, Habs Fan, Freelance Web Developer. Feisty, honest, careless and disconcertingly astute.
czechtacular
czechtacular (aka Kathy) is the former follower of a single team, whose interests still are and will always be number one in her book (she does write at All HABS, after all!) but making the jump to junior hockey in 2005 has resulted in, well, quite frankly, a mess that no one will ever be able to understand all at once. A former student of photography, history and communications, she has been to games of the NHL, AHL, QMJHL, CIS, LHJAAAQ, LNAH, and even the NWHL, and definitely doesn't intend on stopping there.

Rookie
Long story short: After two decades of not really understanding it, Erica (aka Rookie) gave in to one of the best things about being a Montrealer: the Canadiens. She'd been a rabid TV fan for years before, which explains why she might on occasion compare hockey to TV. Hockey fans and TV fans are from two different worlds. It's an interesting line to walk, but Rookie's trying to give you the best of both worlds.

Lyse
Lyse will be contributing articles en Français, doing translations and moderating the Montreal Forum discussion boards. Her Twitter handle tout éparpillée literally means « scattered all over the place ». That is just about right about herself. Maybe she has some form of undiagnosed syndrome similar to ADDH, Lyse doesn't care even if she does sound crazy at times. To her, idleness is just another pretext to prowl about the interwebs. Hockey and the Habs are but just two of the topics she likes to read, write and share about. She's sometimes rational, sometimes emotional about the things she does and at times both at once. A twitter follower once called her an All Terrain Habs fan. She thought it was just fine. Lyse is very honored to join the All Habs network, as it does cater to Habs fans all over. They are the best fans in the world.

EP
After ignoring hockey for the majority of her life, EP finally became a fan of the sport when she watched the Montreal Canadiens on a blustery April night. It was pretty much love at first sight. Since then she has became completely obsessed with hockey - an obsession that culminated in her following 8 teams in 5 different leagues one season. She can be found on Twitter randomly babbling about her teams (now numbering roughly 3 1/2).

Bailey
Instilled in her from a young age, Bailey grew up loving the game of hockey and had no choice, in a family of Montrealers, in becoming a Habs fan.[So kidding] Growing up in Toronto, and being a Montreal Canadiens fan, is not an easy feat, but somehow, Bailey persevered and used her knowledge of hockey and sport to overcome. Her passion lies with hockey, and the Habs, but she is also up for conversation about any and all sports imaginable. She is currently in school, taking journalism courses at Ryerson, in hopes that she will one day be able to share her dry sense of humour and red-headed-ranting with everyone across the nation.

Sara A.
Sara didn’t grow up in a hockey family. She has no nice stories about how she spent her childhood winters watching Hockey Night in Canada with her dad. What really happened is that one day, she decided to watch one hockey game by herself (just to see what the fuss was all about) and that was all it took. Love at first sight. A couple of years later, her passion is stronger than ever. She is currently studying communications at Université de Montréal, hoping to make it in the hockey media business one day. Artistic, expressive and meticulous, she would like to become a reporter or a video editor. When she is not watching, talking or writing about hockey, she likes to listen to music, watch one of her too many favourite tv shows and hangs out with her friends.

Steven Ellis
Growing up with a Leafs fan for a father and a Habs fan for a mother, Steven had to decide which team he would cheer for. One day, before a Montreal and Toronto game at the Air Canada Center (because he lives in Toronto), he was given a Montreal jersey, and that's all it took. Steven's favorite players include Pk Subban, Dan Ellis, Tom Pyatt, Jose Theodore, Guillaume Latendresse, Ryan Ellis and Sergei Bobrovsky. His favorite posiston is goalie, having played it himself.

Habsterix
Habsterix is a fictional character created for the sole purpose of the internet. Based on the cartoon Asterix of Gaule, his magic potion is his passion for the Montreal Canadiens. How old is he? His close friends will tell you that he’s so old, his back goes out more than he does! He was born when Béliveau lifted the Cup and remembers the days when seeing the Habs winning was not a wish, it was an expectation. For him, writing is a hobby, not a profession. Having moved to beautiful British Columbia in 1992, he started writing mostly in French to keep up his grammar, until non-bilingual BC friends pushed him into starting his own English Blog. His wife will say that he can be stubborn, but she will be the first to recognise that he has great sense of humour. He is always happy to share with you readers his point of views on different topics, and while it is expected that people won’t always agree, respect of opinions and of others is his mission statement. Follow him on Twitter: @Habsterix
