We witnessed a unique moment during Montreal Canadiens head coach Martin St-Louis' daily press briefing.

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.

A Journalist Asks Martin St-Louis a Special Question During a Press Conference

See how the excellent Priyanta Emrith reported it.

«Martin St-Louis was asked if he drinks after a loss: Are we going to talk about my alcohol consumption? *laughs* I don't think I'd use alcohol to get over it -- but I'll tell you this; beer tastes better after a win!'»

- Priyanta Emrith

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?
