The press conference of the Montreal Canadiens head coach, Martin St-Louis, ended rather unexpectedly today.

A journalist you are well acquainted with asked a question about the World Hockey Championship, which will take place after the season, and St-Louis refused to answer.

We like it. It shows just how much his focus is 110% on the end of his team's season.

When asked (among other things) whether his players should accept invitations to the World Championship, which will take place in May, see his response:

«Listen, there are 10 games left to play this season, I'm not going to start talking about the World Championship, Martin... I apologize.»

- Martin St-Louis, who then got up and left the press room

See the complete press conferences, here:

We're talking about it, especially because it helps to better understand the mindset of the Habs head coach, who is absolutely focused on these last 10 games.
