Since the change in management at the Montreal Canadiens, this is not the first time we have reported on unique things that have happened with the team that we hardly ever see elsewhere. This was the case again yesterday, during the Tricolore's practice. The Athletic's excellent reporter, Marc Antoine Godin, who covers the CH's activities, reported on a situation that was totally out of the ordinary. <q>General manager Kent Hughes was at the Habs' morning practice on Thursday. At the end of practice, Martin St. Louis gathered his players at the blue line ... He spoke to them for a few moments, then pointed in Hughes' direction. He asked his players to look at their GM and Hughes responded with a word or two and a wave. St. Louis drew everyone's attention to their GM and used him as a direct source of motivation for a matchup that would take place a few hours later. That kind of thing never happens. - Marc Antoine Godin</q> Wow! The organization keeps finding new ways to motivate the club's players. It feels different and it is refreshing to see that there is cohesion between the management and coaching staff as they work to build a winning culture for the long term. It's a move that may seem insignificant from St. Louis, but it speaks volumes about the organization's new philosophy. <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/MAGodin/status/1641692515182018560?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1641692515182018560%7Ctwgr%5E5c6e6b4ff17334011120e60d57ec9cb1a3c255fb%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.habsetlnh.com%2FScene-speciale-entre-Martin-St-Louis-et-Kent-Hughes-a-entrainement-du-CH-un-geste-jamais-vu-auparavant-a-ete-pose-223061'> </a></blockquote></div> Credit: <a href='https://www.habsetlnh.com/equipe-lnh/canadiens-de-montreal/Scene-speciale-entre-Martin-St-Louis-et-Kent-Hughes-a-entrainement-du-CH-un-geste-jamais-vu-auparavant-a-ete-pose' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>HabsetLNH.com</a>
