Maxim Lapierre gets called out online regarding Joshua Roy
The Montreal Canadiens have announced the recall of forward Joel Armia this morning for Saturday night's game. At the time of writing, it's unclear whether he will be in the lineup or used as the 13th forward.
Despite his five points, including four goals in as many games, Armia isn't the name generating the most interest in Laval right now. Joshua Roy just had a five-point game and has nine points in four games, leading the entire American Hockey League.
As a result, some hoped that Roy would be recalled instead of Joel Armia, and Maxim Lapierre is among those in that group. However, the former Canadiens player commented on several journalist posts on the subject. These journalists are content with the idea that the young man stays in Laval.
Maxim didn't do anything wrong; he shared his opinion. When he was in Roy's position, the fact that the Canadiens recalled him, even for two or three games, helped him a lot in his development. Internet users started getting involved, and it's safe to say that the majority wants Roy to remain in Laval for the time being.
Lapierre was contradicted by Anthony Marcotte, Eric Engels, Marc Antoine Godin, and several internet users. It's not always easy to express your opinion these days!
