After several days of complete radio silence, the Montreal Canadiens finally provided an update on forward Patrik Laine yesterday.

In the past few hours, we’ve learned that Laine has requested a second opinion.

No, that’s not a good sign at all.

That’s exactly what Laine did last year after suffering his devastating knee injury…

It also means that the first diagnosis clearly didn’t sit well with him.

A rumor suggests that Patrik Laine may have re-injured his knee

That would be incredibly sad and unfortunate for Laine – especially in a contract year!

If he has indeed re-injured his knee and ends up missing significant time, it would be terrible news for the rest of his career, particularly as he hopes to earn a solid new contract next summer.

“Sportsnet’s Eric Engels reports that Patrik Laine is getting a second opinion on his lower-body injury, and Grant McCagg reports that, according to his information, last year, his knee injury was more than a sprain. Could the same knee be bothering him again? If so, what are the implications?”

– The Hockey News

We’ll be monitoring this situation closely for you!

Let’s sincerely hope that’s not the case for Laine – but yes, things aren’t looking too good right now…
