Since his arrival with the Montreal Canadiens, head coach Martin St-Louis has accustomed us to colorful and out of the ordinary analogies, but today he has outdone himself.

In a statement that quickly went viral, St-Louis bluntly compared his players to little puppies that pee.
We love it:
" " A young hockey team is like a puppy. You know he'll pee on the carpet occasionally, but that doesn't mean you don't love him. It's about teaching him the right habits."-Martin St. Louis

If that isn't the most delicious analogy... "

- Reported by Marc-André Perreault of TVA Sports
J-F Chaumont reports it this way:
The CH and the puppy analogy.

"You can train a puppy. It will behave well for two weeks, but you know it will eventually escape again with a pee on the carpet. That doesn't mean you don't love your puppy." - Martin St. Louis

It's hilarious, but it's also mostly a great image to help us understand what's going on right now with the Montreal Canadiens and this young team.
There will be ups and downs.
It's just perfect.
