CALGARY, Alberta — Montreal Canadiens coach Martin St. Louis is taking an indefinite leave for family reasons. Assistant coach Trevor Letowski will run the team while St. Louis is away. Montreal lost 5-2 at Calgary in the opener of a five-game trip. It is 6-13-4 in its last 23 games. The 48-year-old St. Louis was hired as interim coach after the Canadiens fired Dominique Ducharme in February 2022. He signed a three-year contract extension in June 2022.
