#Habs Martin St. Louis on his two absences this week "I’m just happy I got to be at my two boys' graduations. Throughout my career, I missed a lot of stuff when I was a player. Luckily, I was able to attend those because they were on non-game days, and I wasn't going to miss that." #GoHabsGo #NHL #Hockey

#Habs Michael Hage if roster influenced decision "It's never about who's here or who they're bringing in. I would bet on myself a hundred times out of a hundred to be able to step in and play the game I want to play and make an impact. It was more about how bad I wanted to go back. I've made some decisions like this in my career before that people may have questioned. I'm completely accountable for them, and I'll own that decision." #GoHabsGo #NHL #Hockey

#Habs Martin St. Louis on keeping Jakub Dobes in goal "I feel like the goalie position is probably the one position that I can't help much with. So I try to stay out of it and not be emotionally driven or be upset that we’re down[...] Trevor radioed up top to our goalie coach, Marco, and he made the call. It was a very quick call, too; he said, 'No, keep him in.' Okay, let's move on" #GoHabsGo #NHL #Hockey

#Habs Kent Hughes on improving roster "Trust me, it is not for a lack of trying, and we will continue to do that. I do not feel like it is today, tomorrow, or any specific day that we are going to make this team better[...] We won't do a dumb trade or a dumb move that might appease the passionate fan base on a short-term basis and then a year later look back and say, 'What the hell did they just get us into?'" #GoHabsGo #NHL #Hockey

#Habs Martin St. Louis on Game 6 mindset "If you spend so much time telling them how important it is, you raise the level of stress. To me, it's just another game. Let's go play. The nets will be there in the same spot, the blue line, the red line—let's just go play. It's not about getting caught up in rising to the occasion; it's about playing to your standards with the details of the game." #GoHabsGo #NHL #Hockey

#Habs Jeff Gorton on contract talks wih Arber Xhekaj "We've already had conversations with Arber himself when he left Montreal for the summer. I feel pretty confident that all our guys will continue good conversations. Right now it's the draft, kind of concentrate on that, and then we'll turn the page in a few days." #GoHabsGo #NHL #Hockey

#Habs Martin St. Louis following loss vs #Sabres "You have to give credit to the other side, they played a very good game. We didn't have much calm or poise. It's tough, you have to live through these moments to learn. These are stressful moments for players who want the result. It's loud, there's a lot of chaos, and tonight we didn't see things clearly through that chaos. We are better than that. It wasn't a good game for us." #GoHabsGo #NHL #Hockey

#Habs Mike Matheson on fatigue "It's the situation that we created. You can look at the two other series before this: there were opportunities to go up 3-1 twice, and we couldn't do that. So it's the situation that we created, it's not an excuse." #GoHabsGo #NHL #Hockey

#Habs Kent Hughes on Kirby Dach "Kirby is definitely a player with a lot of potential. He hasn't been lucky when it comes to injuries. He is one year away from free agency, so we extended his qualifying offer. We'll speak with him over the phone in the coming days or weeks to discuss his future, what he wants, and how he sees himself, while exchanging ideas with him. From there, we will make our decisions." #GoHabsGo #NHL #Hockey

#Habs Brendan Gallagher on being scratched "I am comfortable with what I bring to this group. If my number is called, I know I can contribute. If not, you just have to be a good teammate, and that is it. I am grateful for the time I have spent in this city; I feel very fortunate. I understand that you never know when you might be pushed out, so I just try to take advantage of every opportunity I have" #GoHabsGo #NHL #Hockey

#Habs Martin St. Louis thoughts on season "I feel like it's something we've built, and we keep growing. We've learned, and we're going to learn a lot through this process and failing at advancing. But you learn way more through the failures. This year, I know we're not moving on, we're not going to win the championship, but there's a lot of wins in what we did this year. I think it's going to help us to keep progressing." #GoHabsGo #NHL #Hockey

#Habs Philip Danault on season in LA "I felt like I had no purpose and that I couldn't bring anything to the team with what I had. I felt helpless and not important. That's how I felt at the end" (Translated from French) #GoHabsGo #NHL #Hockey Rick Stephens / Rocket Sports

#Habs Martin St. Louis on preparing for Game 5 "Today is a day off. I want the players to try and disconnect a bit from the daily grind and the emotional rollercoaster. It's important to come back with the right intentions tomorrow. On our end, we're going to watch the game and find an angle to address the team. We always knew this would be a long series; the key is to stay on task and not get caught up in the emotional rollercoaster. We need to stay even-keeled." #GoHabsGo #NHL #Hockey

#Habs Nick Suzuki on being compared to Patrice Bergeron "It’s really nice to hear those comments from other coaches and players. It’s always great to see what they think about you; it goes a long way. He has obviously coached a lot of great teams and great players, so it’s great to hear that coming from him. I obviously loved watching Patrice [Bergeron] and I want to be the best 200-foot player I can be. That has always been my goal." #GoHabsGo #NHL #Hockey Rick Stephens / Rocket Sports

#Habs Martin St. Louis & #Sabres Lindy Ruff on drawing penalties Ruff: "I know Montreal’s got a good power play, but I think they’re going down easy[...] You know if they have a chance to make the play look worse than it is, they’re going to. It’s playoff hockey; every team in this league does it." MSL: "He was talking about his team too? I won't comment on his vision of things. I find that the calls on one side or the other pretty much even out, and I don't dwell on that." #GoHabsGo #NHL #Hockey

#Habs Martin St. Louis on Florian Xhekaj "I want him to play his game in our game. He's a player that walks the line, and you don't want to prevent players from walking the line. He has to control that. I want him to be close to the line. I want him to bring his toughness and his energy without hurting the team" (Translated from French) #GoHabsGo #NHL #Hockey Rick Stephens / Rocket Sports
