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
"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.
