During Josh Anderson's press conference a few minutes ago, we witnessed a funny moment when he had an animated exchange with journalists.
They asked him if he still planned to play for the Montreal Canadiens and come back next season. This question clearly annoyed Anderson who reacted by saying:
"Listen, you (the journalists) had the chance to leave during the trade rumors at the deadline, but I'm still here. I wasn't traded, and I'm still here for four years because that's what my contract states." - Josh Anderson
Here's what the journalist answered:
"We didn't start the rumors, it was the general manager of the organization Kent Hughes who mentioned your name in the context of potential Canadiens trades."
Anderson, obviously upset, made a point to emphasize that he is under contract and wants to stay with the Canadiens.
"Okay, but for now, I'm still here" - Josh Anderson
