BREAKING: ‘This is sad’ Canadiens Fans confirm more bad news

Veteran NHL winger Patrik Laine was looking forward to a fresh start with the Montreal Canadiens after being traded this summer. The 26-year-old had a challenging year, having been released from the NHL Player Assistance Program in July. Unfortunately, his time in Montreal took a troubling turn when he suffered a severe knee injury during a preseason game against the Toronto Maple Leafs, colliding with forward Cedric Pare—just over a month after joining the Canadiens.

Montreal fans are left wondering when Patrik Laine will return to the ice. According to the latest injury update, it may not be anytime soon. Laine was seen on the bench with a knee brace and crutches during Monday’s practice, as reported by Canadiens insider Renaud Lavoie. While there hasn’t been an official diagnosis, the fact that the former second-overall pick from 2016 can’t walk without assistance is troubling.
