Montreal Transferred to the Canadiens Patrick Laine commented for the first time on his situation after the knee injury. The message is short and he published it In the Instagram Stories section.
“Thank you all for the love. 92 will come back”, Laine writes and poses in the photo with crutches in the background of an airplane.
Montreal announced on Tuesday that Laine will be sidelined for an estimated 2-3 months. Laine’s knee was sprained, and the injury does not require surgery. The information is reassuring, because even a season-ending knee injury was feared.
“A real-life miracle. Thank you all for your prayers and messages,” writes Laine’s fiancé Jordan Leigh In the Instagram Stories section.
Montreal’s players have also commented on Laine’s situation and especially the fact that Laine is surviving a couple of months of hiatus.
“We thought it would be a longer time when you looked at the video and the situation, but this is a long time too. In a way, both good and bad news, but better than we thought. We’re trying to support him and make him feel like he’s part of the team,” the defender David Savard stated of NHL.com by.
Striker Brendan Gallagher stated that the entire club and fans were excited when he arrived in Montreal.
“This is naturally difficult for him. He is a fast player and to postpone everything is disappointing, but in a way it is part of the nature of the game.”
Laine, 26, was injured right away in his second training match of the fall, the night before Sunday. He crashed into Toronto Cedric Paren with fatal consequences.
