Change is hard. A few games after Dominique Ducharme took over as interim head coach of the Montreal Canadiens, he said that habits are called habits for a reason and that it takes time and work to break them.
Everyone can understand that. If you have tried to make any changes, one of the hardest things is to break old habits. The Canadiens have shown significant improvement in almost all areas of their game since the coaching change happened.
They are clearly on the right path, however, a 2-1-3 record means that the results haven’t caught up to their play.
