Player Discussion Patrik Laine
- Thread starter Vachon23
- Start date
The shots of him throwing his helmet and being in obvious pain kinda suggests he knew this is a long recovery
I feel so bad for him. All the talent in the world, can't catch a break
Exactly.

Honestly just leaves you feeling revolted that, after everything he's endured and the recovery process in which he invested himself last year, (I suspect) his season should end before it even begins.
That sucks so bad. I expect we dig in the bargain bin when the pto are over or players are waived. Or Kapanen stays and play Wing Or Dvorak plays wing and Kapanen takes his place... still, Laine vs Dvorak, life sucks...

Was helped to the room after not being able to put weight on his leg. This happened right before Laine went down.

If Reinbacher is out for significant time, it won't impact the Habs. It will impact Laval and possibly his short-term development.Man was actually excited for cheering for Habs to win this season.

Well this is pretty devastating and depressing, turn on the TV just to see a slow mo of the injury… don’t have to be a doctor to figure out that it a ACL and he out for the year…
Minimum 6-8 weeks, If it is a torn Acl out for the year. Pretty reasonable to think his season is done. Going forward I would be very ok with just playing prospects and AHL players in the preseason for the coming years.

Yup.. might as well battle it out with columbus.. seriously, im already hold8ng my breath w8th Dach, CC and Hutson..
I must warn you in advance that I don't know what his injury is. But in his situation .... I think he would be throwing a helmet even if he had a simple bruise.

A doctor just told me the same (“oh, he’s done. ACL”), but I’m sure you mean one who’s examined him.
I have zero optimism on this one.

No need to wait, the Twitter Doctor Gawd Grewal was all over it 3 hours ago:
Well as a physician and being able to guess injuries based on mechanism, I can tell you this is ACL +/- MCL until proven otherwise, but we have to wait for MRI to know the grade. I don’t think he comes back this season based on the images we saw but I’d be very happy to be wrong
