MONTREAL - Some fans paint their faces for the playoffs, others paint murals.
Count local artist Waxhead among the latter, after painting an anthropomorphic version of the Habs' iconic torch in Montreal's Mile End neighborhood. And the fiery figure has never looked cuter. Located just off St-Viateur, near St-Laurent , the 3-meter creation is keeping the torch burning while Habs fans wait just a while longer to potentially cheer on the team in person.

It's the newest work of art to be created during the team's 2021 playoff run, following Paul Byron's Game 1 winning goal.
Checking out the latest Habs oeuvre to grace the city's colorful landscape should be the latest item on any Canadiens fan's growing playoff to-do list, after getting a free team tattoo at Adrenaline (sorry mom!), , "catching" a T-shirt from Youppi!, and more.
