Thanks to the work of the excellent journalist Anthony Martineau, from TVA Sports, we have obtained extremely reassuring (and interesting) images.
Yes, the Canadiens are in rebuilding mode, yes, the team is eliminated from the playoffs, but that doesn't mean Martin St-Louis lets the young players do whatever they want.
The head coach of the Montreal Canadiens continues to push them, as if the team was in the playoffs, and we love it.
"For those who are worried about complacency setting in for the Habs, be reassured.
This morning, MSL did not hesitate to speak his mind to certain players during an exercise targeting forechecking/zone exits.
Slafkovsky and Ylonen were notably addressed."
It's only positive to see all this, and it will certainly be beneficial for the young players in the long term.
Allowing a culture of losing to set in is probably the biggest danger when a team is rebuilding. And Martin St-Louis is making sure that doesn't happen.
