Zachary Bolduc sends a clear message to Martin St-Louis after being left out of the lineup.
The young forward acquired on July 1, 2025, in exchange for Logan Mailloux has no intention of sulking.
Last night, a telling image on RDS showed that No. 76 is keeping his spirits high. His mental maturity in the face of adversity is evident.
It’s simple – this is exactly the attitude Martin St-Louis wants to see from his young players. No one wants a talented player isolating himself in the corner.
“It hurts,” he admitted Friday after an optional practice. However, he refuses to feel sorry for himself moving forward.
At the Bell Centre, fans expect consistent offensive production. The team’s mix requires solid execution without mistakes.
“When my turn comes, I will be ready. The ball is in my court.”

This difficult trial quickly shapes the identity of a professional athlete. Core players like Suzuki have also gone through complex adjustment periods.
With the salary cap reality, every average minute of ice time must be earned. Work away from the puck remains crucial to winning.
The organization wants to generate fluid offensive impact to compete in the Atlantic Division. This break could act as a mental reset.
Montreal holds a 32-17-9 record this season. The big club’s depth will be tested in the coming games.
The young forward currently has no assists and no goals in his most recent matchups. He must absolutely regain his rhythm.
