Following the practice session, Montgomery explained his behavior to the media, acknowledging the team’s subpar performance and his responsibility as a coach to address it. He emphasized the importance of attention to detail and game management, admitting his own shortcomings in preparing the team for practice that day.
In essence, Montgomery’s outburst stemmed from a desire to motivate his team and instill a sense of urgency and accountability as they strive for better results on the ice.
