Player Discussion Patrik Laine: ruining the tank

[Toene]

FWIW the team many have added only Hutson, but you have Dach back after a year and an upward trending Slaf. This team will feel different than last year.

Upward trending? Him and Caufield played like dogshit yesterday.

 

[sampollock]

Yeah, he's injury prone and I wasn't surprised about him getting hurt.

But not like this. That could've happened to any of our guys. Reckless play by a nobody. That's not the kind of thing that's predictable or something you can fault Laine on.

For Pete's sake though, this HAS to be it. These kinds of injuries are insane. There's just no way this shit should happen every single freaking year.

how is it PL fault. guy takes his knee out. this in injury prone. its a bottom feeder move. and he smiles yet to boot

 

[jackp0t]

Just saw that Cedric Pare AHL contrat is 400k/year. Clearly you dont pay a guy 400k to do 30 pts in the A..

Was never that high on Laine trade

He just hasn't been what he should have been
And that's been for quite some time

It's a good trade even if Laine never play for the Habs

What about Reinbacher ? Another big injury

Michkov scores his third of preseason and the OT winner last night!

As much as I'm pissed off by what happened, people are losing it on Cedric Pare. His instagram profile is now absolutely filled with hate.

There's a line between being pissed and saying some of that stuff. Just be pissed by yourself or with your friends. People shouldn't go on his damn instagram page...

Why did you go, then?

Is this really necessary? The guy just got a massive injury. What’s the point of this post? To gloat? You look like a moron.

Imagine, 6 weeks and we've all been crying for nothing.

Been posting here for 20+ years now. 75%+ of posts are people crying for nothing.

This board is a venting outlet.

Not for nothing but you were the guy repeatedly calling Laine a drug addict before we acquired him. You should probably sit this one out.

I would be "fine" with 3 months. It's salvagable. If it's more, we are screwed.

This is what jabronis do when they know they're missing their check after getting deked out. The reflex is to reach for the hit and this is what happens.

Don't think it was intentional, but just incompetence. They teach you not to do this because it puts yourself and the other player in danger.

He could have gone for a proper upper body check. Fine. Deck Laine. Instead he sticks his knee in. A Habs player said this crossing the line play happens all the time. With no damage. Insinuating that pare fd up bad. Pare will never play an nhl game after this.

Berube will espeially ask for him to be in his line-up, watch it.

Being injury prone is not a myth. This has to do with the way you play, the way you skate and how you protect yourself. This is not just bad luck.

For these reasons I fully expect Dach to get injured as well (mid to long term).

Good. Blame the victim. Well done.

 

[The Real Timo]

Typical 21st century BS. More concern for the aggressor/perpetrator than their victim. Poor Cedric. Pouvre bon ti' gars d'chez nous.

This screams of game 1 season-ending injury. I've been a habs fan for too long.

Lmao

It's an unfortunate situation that no one wants to see happen, especially for a player attempting to make a comeback. However, incidents such as this open up opportunities for others. Maybe Kapanen or Roy takes advantage of this opening in the roster.

Ah va t'en sacrament

You're probably the only person giddy about all this shit today

We're all very happy for you
