St-Louis is obviously a great family man, so it must be very difficult for him (every time) to return to Montreal and leave his wife and children behind in the United States, even if that's what they all want.
"By accepting to become the head coach of the Montreal Canadiens, Martin St-Louis made an important sacrifice: leaving his family behind in the United States.
But don't be mistaken - it's what each of his three sons wants."
Martin St-Louis: 'If I asked each of them: "Would you like me to stay home or go coach the Canadiens?", they would all want me to coach,' confessed the Habs coach during a generous interview given to Salut Bonjour."
That said, all of this is about to change drastically.
Confirmed: Martin St-Louis announces that his wife will soon be able to join him
What wonderful news!
He himself announced it, again during this generous interview on Salut Bonjour.
"She knew I wanted to coach, but I was only willing to leave to become a head coach in the NHL, and I had told her, 'don't worry, it won't happen.' When it did happen, she was laughing, but she was behind me.
"Now, there's one year left. It's my youngest's last year in high school. Next year, she'll be able to follow me."
