Why does their team have an H in the C on their jersey?

les Habitants ( The inhabinants, meaning, the Canadiens) Ergo, that is why they are called the "Habs". Montreal is mainly French speaking.

Actually, the C wrapped around the H stands for "Club de Hockey Canadian".

Here's the link to Montreal's website. It gives all the logo's, jerseys over their history. The H stands for Hockey.
