The lack of reaction that Zack Kassian's move provoked among the Tricolore's players last Saturday says a lot about the players' commitment this year. Let's face it, it's not normal what happened to Zack Kassian when he hit CH goalie Sam Montembeault hard.
Arizona Coyotes forward Antoine Roussel says it's inconceivable that Kassian's hit didn't elicit any reaction from the Habs players.
Roussel also talks about a situation that occurred in the past when he hit Bruins defenseman Charlie McAvoy hard. Roussel was quickly visited by Patrice Bergeron and David Pastrnak to warn him about his action.
On the Habs' side, other than Michael Pezzetta who got into a fight late with Kassian, no one really did anything to reprimand him. It just shows how badly this team is doing right now. This is something the organization will have to change soon!
