#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 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 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 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 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

#Rocket Florian Xhekaj drops the gloves against #Marlies Michael Pezzetta, after the former Hab lays a very questionable hit on Marc Del Gaizo. A scrum involving multiple players began at the conclusion of the fight. #GoRocket #AHL #Hockey #GoHabsGo Rick Stephens / Rocket Sports

#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 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 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 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 on coaching in playoffs "It is an unbelievable experience. I was happy to live it last year, and just to be a part of it and behind this group is unbelievable[...] Being front and center and part of it is not something I take for granted. I try to earn that every day, but there is nothing like being behind the bench of the Montreal Canadiens, and you magnify that with the playoffs—it is pretty cool." #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

#Habs Martin St. Louis on playing Adam Engstrom over Arber Xhekaj/Jayden Struble "They're going to play. It's the chair that [Struble] and [Xhekaj] sits in. We're confident having those guys in that chair. They're good defencemen, but when you give reps to Engstrom, one of those guys has to come out. It's not necessarily a rotation. It's performance based and we keep evaluating. I like our seventh D but were only playing six" #GoHabsGo #NHL #Hockey Rick Stephens / Rocket Sports

#Habs Mike Matheson on contract "There may have been more money elsewhere but that's not my priority. My priority is to be part of this group and win. I'm giving myself a bigger chance to do that here. It's also important for the team to have more money to keep the players we have. Family was also important" (Translated from french) #GoHabsGo #NHL #Hockey Rick Stephens / Rocket Sports

#Habs Martin St. Louis on goaltending "Can our goalies be better? Yes and they will be the first to say it. You want me to tell them that I want more saves? Everyone wants more saves. The goalies can be better. I won't blame everything on the goalies. There's other things on the ice that we can better at" (Translated from french) #GoHabsGo #NHL #Hockey Rick Stephens / Rocket Sports

#Habs Kent Hughes on Samuel Montembeault “Sam is in Laval to get a break from here and find his confidence. We've all seen him in the last 3 years and we know he's a good goalie. The question is whether it will take next week, two weeks, in a month, and we're trying to find ways to accelerate it" (Translated from French) #GoHabsGo #NHL #Hockey Rick Stephens / Rocket Sports
