A journalist began questioning St-Louis about the emotional rollercoaster that comes with a losing streak like the one the Canadiens are currently experiencing, asking him, «What's the worst thing that comes with a loss?»
Martin responded that, for him, the worst moment after a loss often hits about thirty minutes after the game ends.
The journalist then dug deeper, asking further questions to understand how Martin handles these difficult moments after a loss (like last night's defeat against the Calgary Flames, for instance).
Martin answered.
But then, the same journalist came back with a third question, and many believe this question crossed a line.
See how the excellent Priyanta Emrith reported it.
He took it with an awkward chuckle, to his credit, but it's a question that sparked reactions on social media.
In your opinion, is it inappropriate to question the head coach of the Montreal Canadiens about his alcohol consumption during a press conference and live on camera?
This moment happens at the 23rd minute of the following video:
Let's hope the Canadiens can get back on the winning track soon.
Martin St-Louis' squad will be back in action tomorrow night at 7:00 PM, live from New Jersey to face off against Johnathan Kovacevic and Jake Allen's Devils.
Will Allen be in net?
