I was at the Canadiens’ practice this morning in Brossard, and after practice, a special moment happened on the ice: all the players jumped on Lane Hutson to congratulate him on his new contract.It madefor great pictures. And it proves just how tight-knit the guys are:

Martin St-Louis told Lane Hutson to go around the rink to share the news with his players. Because no, the guys weren’t aware of the situation before and during practice. The CH pilot didn’t want to talk about it because he wanted the team to be focused for practice. Obviously, the guys were happy for Hutson when they heard the news. St-Louis came back to that moment after practice and said he loved the way his players reacted.That sentence speaks for itself, after all:

I’m not surprised by the way the players reacted, and I like it almost more than a win. I think Lane was happy to go out for a spin, he likes to skate.

The culture of the Habs has changed, and right now you can see how much fun everyone has in the organization. The guys get on the ice 30 minutes before practice because they like spending time together, they’re there for each other when there’s news like Hutson’s contract.it helps when there’s a nice environment within a team.
