Martin St-Louis is reportedly angry with a player from the Canadiens, and a waiver could be announced today by Montreal according to two experts
After what many are calling a subpar performance by young goaltender Cayden Primeau, the three-goalie situation with the Canadiens continues to create a buzz in the media.
As my colleague Keven Mawn reports, expert Stéphane Fiset, on RDS, went even further.
«He (Martin) is upset about a situation. Martin has never dared to blame the players, but tonight, you can see he's angry with his goaltender. The team played a good 40 minutes and in the third period, Primeau let in bad goals, which completely changed the complexion of the game. And maybe Primeau isn't the one he would have wanted in net (against the Panthers).» - Stéphane Fiset
And he knows what he's talking about! So, according to Fiset, Martin St-Louis was not happy with his goalie, even though he didn't want to blame him directly.
It seems obvious that Martin is not comfortable with the three-goalie situation, and it's becoming more and more apparent.
Here's the mentioned excerpt, below:
Some, like Tony Marinaro, go even further, outright suggesting that now is the perfect time to put goalie Primeau on NHL waivers.
Do you agree?
In any case, with Montembeault's new contract and the additional departures it will command, this three-goalie situation is far from over.
