Dominic's Bio

Born in Quebec City on Friday, March 23rd, 1973.

Although I was born in the city of the Quebec Nordiques (now the Colorado Avalanche) I have always been a Montreal Canadiens fan.

I started on the work force as a dish washer in restaurants at age 16. Then became a cook and moved to sous-chef to finally become chef at my father-in-law's restaurant in Quebec City.

Then I got bored and decided to study IT. Graduated in 1997 and started working in IT in October of 1997.

I lived in many cities. Among them, Rimouski, Levis, Longueuil, Hull, Gatineau to finaly establish myself with my girlfriend in Montreal.

I am married since May 19th, 2007 but have been living with my wife since 1996. We do not have kids yet.

I was always a great fan of the Canadiens, but also a HUGE fan of the game itself. I play hockey 2-3 times a week during the winter, and baseball during the summer.

Hey I wrote an article on the current state of NHL writers on Bleacher Report and I think it's an important read to members of the community. Take a look when you get a chance. Thanks.

Greetings fellow Habs community member,

The playoffs are starting in just two days, and while we are all gearing up with our lucky jerseys and our favourite beers (for those who are legally old enough), our beloved Canadiens are getting ready to make the most of the new chance that has been given to them with this playoff ticket.

Exciting times, exciting times.

Bleacher has always been a place of gathering and debating for us Hockey fans. This time again, we will take the playoffs and our views in our own writings, with a series of articles in partnership with the Boston Bruins community (details in the following link).

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/155874-a-call-to-arms-for-bruins-and-habs-writers

So please come in and be part of it, to add to our already exciting playoffs atmosphere!

Comments, suggestions and ideas are more than welcomed on the Community Leaders’ boards. Tell us what you think, what you want to add and such!

Happy playoffs and GO HABS GO!
