Martin St-Louis Makes another Surprising Move Following Canadiens' Latest Defeat
Head coach of the Montreal Canadiens, Martin St-Louis, announced an interesting decision the day after the defeat against the New Jersey Devils.
I really don't want this to sound like criticism, but it's a fact. It's really rare to see an NHL team get so many days off, especially after losses, but well, that's what MSL decided for today.
Personally, I trust him completely, but just know that it's rare to see this in the National Hockey League.
Another day off for the Montreal Canadiens players
See what journalist Stu Cowan reported.
They will practice at 10:30 a.m. Monday at the CN Sports Complex in Brossard before facing the Winnipeg Jets on Tuesday at the Bell Centre.
The Habs suffered a tough loss yesterday against the New Jersey Devils, losing ground in the playoff race as the Senators, Bruins, Blue Jackets, and Red Wings all secured wins.
It's a quiet day in the sports world, with other professional leagues making way for the NFL, with matchups between the Washington Commanders vs. the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs vs. the Buffalo Bills.
So it's a day off today, and then a very big week is starting for Martin St-Louis' team in the playoff race.
The Habs will face the Jets on Tuesday, the Minnesota Wild on Thursday, and the Anaheim Ducks on Sunday (in Anaheim).
