Recently, the CH announced the hiring of Roger Grillo as a consultant coach to assist Martin St-Louis and the team with the power play.
But who will officially replace Alex Burrows?
Martin St-Louis answered this question this morning, and he will personally take charge of the power play.
In my opinion, this is excellent news for the Canadiens, as Martin St-Louis has always been a specialist in this aspect of the game. He will therefore hold both the head coach role and the power play responsibilities.
This was a possibility raised over the summer, and it is now confirmed. One can say that Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton have just given a strong vote of confidence to their head coach!
