Josh Anderson gave a strong message to a reporter at a press briefing

As he was asked about a possible trade and whether he expected to return to Montreal next season, the CH's big forward gave a strong message to reporters:
"I don't want to get into that. Look here, you had a chance (reporters) to leave trade rumors at the trade deadline, but I'm still here. I wasn't traded and I'm still here for four years because that's what my contract says. I'm a Montreal Canadiens, ready to win.
You can write whatever you want." - Josh Anderson

The 28-year-old veteran ended the question by mentioning that he is still with the Tricolore and wants to stay here.
"Okay, but for now, I'm still here. [...]" - Josh Anderson
