The Montreal Canadiens lost again 4-3 to the Florida Panthers on Thursday, but head coach Martin St-Louis still liked what he saw from his players.
“We played an excellent game, apart from the result there's not much not to like,” he said after the game. We are getting closer and closer to this team. Last year they gave us volleys, this year we have drawn three times in the third period.
“It's encouraging [de voir les joueurs impliqués]. It’s important to play with emotions.”

St-Louis also had good words for Nick Suzuki, who had a strong game.
“As a captain he has found consistency this year,” he said. He sees the best players in the league every night. There is nothing that scares him and he is taking his place in the league.
