For the first time since returning home from a visit to his son, Martin St-Louis answered journalists’ questions on the team’s beat .
We already knew thathe had given details of the fact that his youngest son was involved, but he had not yet answered journalists’ questions as such.
But now, on the sidelines of tonight’s match, he has done just that.
He was happy because it’s his second passion (the first is his family), but also because it means things are better at home if he can get back to his normal life.
He didn’t have an easy week and tried to stay in touch with the team (and watch the games), but he felt everyone’s support for his family.
He says he watched his team’s games like a proud coach before saying this:

– The playoffs are scheduled to start on April 20.
Sounds like the NHL will be moving the start date of the playoffs to Saturday April 20th. Originally was the 22nd.
