TVA Sports journalist Renaud Lavoie recently made an interesting statement involving Montreal Canadiens head coach Martin St-Louis.

While some believe and say that MSL has lost his locker room, Lavoie is absolutely convinced otherwise.

Even if it's not necessarily reflected in the results at the moment, everything indicates that in the Montreal Canadiens' locker room, the players are still 100% behind their head coach.

In the Canadiens' locker room, what's being said is very different from what's being said publicly and in the media about Martin St-Louis

Here's an excerpt from Renaud Lavoie's passionate remarks.

«When there are two minutes left in a game, and David Savard blocks a shot twice, I'll say this: there aren't many guys I know who would block shots for a coach they don't like.»

- Renaud Lavoie

He also talked about Josh Anderson, who has never hesitated to drop the gloves against Tom Wilson, and he discussed the overall atmosphere in the locker room right now.

«The guys are still very united, and they want to play for the coach they have behind the bench.»

- Renaud Lavoie

What's being said away from the mics and cameras is that Martin St-Louis still has his locker room at 100%. His players want to win with him, and they want to find solutions with him.

I've never believed that firing Martin St-Louis was a real possibility; however, I think that hiring another experienced coach, especially to fill Alex Burrows' departure, could be possible and beneficial.

No one will be fired, but a new face could still be added to the coaching group already in place (ideally an experienced one).
