Injury to Patrik Laine: a diagnosis date is suggested by Chantal Machabée
It's the hot topic for the Canadiens, and for good reason, as newcomer Patrik Laine suffered a serious injury in his second preseason game.
Bad luck continues for the Finn and for the Canadiens, who rank first among teams with the most injuries over the past three seasons.
A diagnosis of the injury and recovery timeline was expected to be announced during the morning practice on Monday, but that did not happen.
It is anticipated to be serious and lengthy, with the possibility that his season could be over before it even begins. Regarding an official announcement from the organization, Chantal Machabée has spoken.
According to her, the Canadiens will publish an update on Tuesday morning. It might happen on Monday evening, but they want to take their time and ensure the accuracy of the details before providing information.
Imagine if the organization states that he will miss four months and has to be out for the entire season. The impacts would be less pleasant. We understand their decision to wait until they are 100% certain.
Less discussed is the injury suffered by David Reinbacher, which seems no less significant. We will see in the coming hours what the verdict will be in both cases.
Let's hope the Canadiens can bounce back from this bad news.
