Earlier today, the head coach of the Montreal Canadiens Martin St. Louis stated that he would be stepping away from his position indefinitely for family reasons. This would leave Trevor Letowski taking his place for the time being.
While fans were left with a vague statement on coach St. Louis leaving for his family, Canadiens defenseman David Savard accidentally leaked some information regarding this departure. He stated that they would be playing for Martin's son, and wished the best for the family.
Savard likely did not quite understand the impact of what he just shared, given the private nature of the circumstance. However, this was still an incredible gesture by the player.
While we are uncertain of the entire situation for Martin St. Louis' family, we all hope you join us in wishing them the best through these difficult times.
