Hockey fans are in for a treat as Team Canada and Team USA face off today in the Four Nations final, while the Montreal Canadiens take a well-deserved breather.
Head coach Martin St-Louis gave his players the day off after yesterday’s grueling practice session – perfect timing with the international showdown on deck.
St-Louis himself won’t be tuning in though. The Habs’ bench boss made it clear Wednesday he’s keeping his focus squarely on his NHL squad rather than the tournament action.
The timing works out nicely for any Canadiens players hoping to catch their national team in action. They’ll have a rare chance to watch Team Canada battle it out for gold against their American rivals.
