Martin St. Louis addressed the media today, here are his most crucial statements

The following are some of the most crucial statements:

- "It's always been my dream to coach in the NHL. I just needed an opportunity."

- "In life I don't need promises. I just want a chance and I'll show you."

- "I'm going to be a demanding coach, not just physically but mentally. I don't always have the answers, but I know I'll find them."

- "I know I have no experience behind the bench. But I have some in a room and on the ice. From coaching and guys from 15-16-17 to 25 years old. Field hockey is field hockey. I'm not afraid of that jump there."

- "When Kent approached me, there was no doubt in my mind that it was a good opportunity and the right time. I've always looked for opportunities in my life. Give me a chance, I'll show you what I can do."

- "Me, I like challenges. One, it's the Montreal Canadiens. Two, I'm the head coach. Those are two very good reasons to stop whatever I was doing."
