As the Montreal Canadiens are really trying to find answers for their power play, Martin St-Louis' comments about Ivan Demidov and Zachary Bolduc have opened the door to a debate.
I have a feeling what Martin St-Louis just said is going to get people talking...
It's rare to see St-Louis point the finger like this.
A line from St-Louis that changes everything for Ivan Demidov
Today in Columbus, Martin St-Louis was asked about the power play issues.
He answered very calmly (as he always does), but the message was very clear.
"When 5 guys are connected and they're doing their job, it shouldn't take 7-8 passes. It takes a lot of passes because one or two guys aren't doing their jobs."

When you hear that, it sounds like someone aiming at a particular player.
Let's be honest, it's hard not to see a direct link between the quote and the decision.
Even if St-Louis didn't want to name him directly... many people are saying he clearly saw a targeted player in Demidov.
He's young, he'll learn, but this move shows that St-Louis wants to send him a message. If the power play doesn't wake up, the tension could rise even more.
I feel like the next few games will be crucial for Demidov.
