Martin St-Louis had a particular quote to describe the importance of Jake Allen
As we reported earlier this morning, the Canadiens have reached an agreement on a two season contract extension with goaltender Jake Allen.
With Carey Price's injury and the fact that we should expect to never see him play in the Bettman circuit again, Jake Allen thus became an imperative in front of the net, but also as a leader with the youth.
Allen has a great reputation, a great work ethic, a great attitude and he is a great mentor to the youth in the organization. Martin St-Louis had a special quote to describe the importance of number 34:
« It's good to have someone who is willing to plant trees knowing that they will never sit in the shade. »
Now, with Jake Allen under contract for the next three years, plus Montembeault and Primeau for two and three years, we can think even more that it's over for Price.
