A chilly moment occurred during a recent press conference by Martin St-Louis, as the head coach of the Montreal Canadiens turned a well-known journalist's question around.
Frankly, we completely side with the coach on this one.
Martin McGuire asked a question related to the World Hockey Championship, even though there are still about ten games left in the season.
St-Louis simply refused to address the question directly and then left the media interviews with a bit of discomfort.
«Listen, there are 10 games left to play this season, I'm not going to start talking about the World Championship, Martin I'm sorry.»

Although the schedule is nearly over and there are only three weeks left in the campaign, it was somewhat awkward to address St-Louis about an event that will take place in May, beyond the Canadiens' activities.
What we appreciate about the coach's transparency is that it clearly shows that his focus is entirely on his team and the end of their season.
The media should do the same as long as there are games left to play for the Canadiens.
