Dozens of miniature Canadian flags, strung like streamers, arc across the ceiling. A wealth of hockey memorabilia lines the walls—from player portraits and team photos to signed jerseys. Multiple widescreen TVs are tuned to sports channels.
And watching serenely from above the well-stocked bar is a giant moose head—nicknamed “Monty” in a nod to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
“He was an eBay purchase,” notes Denis Ladouceur ’02. “With the antlers, he barely made it in the door. But he’s a perfect fit.”
Welcome to The Canuck, a Canadian sports bar on 9th Avenue between 22nd and 23rd streets in Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood. According to Ladouceur, the former Big Red player who opened it in late 2021, it’s the city’s only bar dedicated to all things Canada and ice hockey.
A native of Ashcroft, BC, Ladouceur majored in economics on the Hill, where he played forward for the Big Red men’s ice hockey team.
“I loved, loved Lynah Rink,” he says, “every bit of it.”
