Montreal Canadiens: David Reinbacher's injury would be worse than Patrik Laine's
The last duel against the Toronto Maple Leafs was very difficult for the Canadiens, who not only lost the game but also two key players.
Indeed, Patrik Laine was set to possibly become the best forward on the team, if not one of the best, while David Reinbacher has the potential to become a high-quality top 4 defenseman.
Knowing that they will likely miss several months of activity, if not the entire season, is quite catastrophic. However, David Reinbacher's injury may be more significant than that of Patrik Laine.
We still do not have a reliable source regarding the exact nature of their injuries and how long their recovery will take, but one thing is certain: missing so much hockey will be very detrimental to David Reinbacher's development.
If he's got a knee injury, after the year he had in Kloten, it would be a huge blow to his development."

It is obviously the worst injury for the future of the Canadiens. Meanwhile, Matvei Michkov is shining in Philadelphia with 6 points in 3 preseason games.
We really hope that the defenseman has avoided the worst because missing so much hockey at his age would force the organization to make him play another year in Laval.
Personally, I believe that both injuries are very serious, but I must admit that for the future of the club, Reinbacher's injury leaves a very bitter taste.
