Sam Montembeault reveals the real reason behind his season turnaround
Another major element is being confirmed for the Montreal Canadiens, as we are seeing the Samuel Montembeault from last season again.
The Bell Centre saw Samuel Montembeault smile again, and he explained it without hesitation.
Since his stint in Laval, Montembeault is 3-0 with a 2.25 goals-against average and a .917 save percentage.
Thursday night, the Montreal Canadiens rode an incredible wave, and the energy could be felt everywhere.
Alexandre Texier stole the show with a hat trick, and the crowd bought in as if it were the playoffs. In the locker room, it wasn't just a night of goals, it was a night of bonds.
The famous wolf head got people talking once again, because this team lives its wins together.
It may sound cliché, but you see it in the actions, not in the speeches.
What also caught attention was Montembeault at the press conference. He spoke about the process he's gone through since the start of the season, and admitted it had been mentally difficult.
