Departure of Martin St-Louis: a necessary upheaval for the Canadiens
Martin St-Louis had to leave to take care of his son for a little over a week. A sad event, but one that had a positive effect on the Canadiens.
Indeed, it was very unifying, so much so that his team has won four out of their last five games, including victories over two powerhouses like the Avalanche and the Panthers.
"The ordeal experienced by coach Martin St-Louis, namely the injury and hospitalization of his youngest son, brought the team together; in sports, this type of event is unifying.
And in Montreal, there was an effect: the club won four of its last five games, defeating some dangerous rivals like the Avalanche and the Panthers along the way, and lost only three times in regulation in their last 10 games." - Michel Therrien

At the moment, the playoff implications are not super important. However, learning how to win is crucial for the future. The Canadiens won't make the playoffs, but victories are good for learning.
"Even though there is no longer any stakes in the standings and there isn't really much difference between 7th and 8th place in the Atlantic Division, it's crucial to finish on a positive note.
Players need to see that the group is improving and that there is hope for next year." - Michel Therrien
