Tk, we know Martin St-Louis has legs as wide as they are long. The guys will have to skate #GoHabsGo pic.twitter.com/knfjus8CIt

Obviously, this may inspire his players to excel, too. The NHLās 23rd-best coach has more than one trick up his sleeveā¦
All of which is to say that Ivan Demidov, the Habsā top prospect, obviously seems to be inspired by St-Louis in this respect. Thatās a good thing, we agree.
Asked about St-Louisā legs by Sergei Demidov of Responsible Gaming, the Canadiensā top prospect replied that he was working to get his legs to match those of his future coach.
If that happensā¦ wow.

Obviously, thereās a difference between saying yes to a question and bringing it up yourself. However, he said what he said, and weāll keep that in mind as we go forward.
In any case, Iāll keep that in mind.
Letās not forget that one of the things Demidov needs to improve is his skating. If he learns to go faster with the puck while dancing on the ice, heāll be very dangerous.
Taking inspiration from Martin St-Louis and Vincent Lecavalier, two players who had success in Tampa Bay and can help him in Montreal, wonāt be a bad thing for the Russian.

ā Speaking of the Wolf: heāll play at 10 a.m. this morning, Quebec time.
