«Martin St-Louis had a successful career as a player. He earned the respect of his peers not only for his prowess on the ice, but also for the perseverance he demonstrated in achieving his goals. I find that it is still felt, and not only on the side of his players. On Wednesday, St-Louis asked to speak to the official and the scene marked me. The ref immediately came to see him on the bench (he ran over) and they seemed to have a cordial discussion. Usually, when a team is mathematically eliminated from the playoffs, it is a bit left behind. There, we feel that he always commands respect." - Michel Bergeron
