Martin St-Louis Slips in Press Conference, Hints at Potentially Bad News for Samuel Montembeault
Saturday night, after the loss to the Golden Knights live from the Bell Centre, did Montreal Canadiens head coach Martin St-Louis let something slip?
During his post-game press conference, St-Louis made a statement that might hint at the possibility of Samuel Montembeault representing Canada in the Four Nations Tournament.
As the invitations are about to be announced, here's what Martin St-Louis said after Saturday's game.
An intriguing comment from Martin St-Louis on Samuel Montembeault
To defend his goaltender, whom he had just pulled from the game against Vegas, St-Louis let the following comment slip:
«Even the goaltenders who are going to the Four Nations Tournament don't make those saves.»
- Martin St-Louis
This small comment is creating quite a stir today.
«One might think that St-Louis is just defending Montembeault with this statement, but at the same time, one could think that, subtly, St-Louis is hinting that Monty might not go to the tournament to represent Canada.»
- Mathis Therrien, DLC
It's possible that Martin St-Louis knows something we don't, but let's hope that's not the case and that this is just a misunderstanding because I genuinely believe Samuel deserves a spot with Team Canada.
