David Savard sends a clear message to Kent Hughes

After Saturday night's game, Montreal Canadiens defenseman David Savard talked about Martin St-Louis' famous structure.

The Quebecer said that he is VERY comfortable with St-Louis' system, which bears a striking resemblance to that of a former coach the two players shared, John Tortorella.

The Quebecer mentioned that he wanted to stay in Montreal and therefore sent a clear message to Kent Hughes.

At 31 years old, Savard will be an excellent mentor for the team's young defensemen.
