Martin St-Louis Publicly Admits Several Players Lost Confidence With Current Losing Streak
We just received a concerning update about the head coach of the Montreal Canadiens, Martin St-Louis.
While he's obviously hoping his team can bounce back as quickly as possible and find their way back to victory, he himself recently admitted that some of the players have lost the confidence necessary for this to happen in the short term.
For him to mention this publicly, it's definitely worrying.
- Martin St-Louis
He mentions this with a caveat and his trademark optimism that we love so much, but as many experts have pointed out, it's undoubtedly troubling to hear such a statement.
This shows that certain players have indeed lost confidence.
A Big Climb Ahead for Martin St-Louis and the Canadiens
If we focus on the positives, let's mention that there is one player who surely regained some confidence after yesterday's game, and that's Alex Newhook.
Let's build on that!
Newhook, who had only 2 points in 13 games this season, scored two goals last night, including a beauty, in his team's loss to New Jersey.
He finished the game with two goals, a plus-minus of zero, three shots on goal, three hits, in just over 19 minutes of ice time.
If Newhook can break through, it would obviously be a very big step in the right direction for the team.
A story to watch in the coming weeks in Montreal!
