In recent hours, the Montreal Canadiens' affiliate team, the Laval Rocket, shared a concerning update about Swedish forward Lias Andersson's health.
Moreover, forwards Mitchell Stephens and Philippe Maillet had to leave the game against the Lehigh Valley Phantoms last night, unable to return to play afterwards.
Despite two injury-riddled years, it seems the Canadiens' organization is facing similar challenges this season, with many players already injured.
Rookies like Joshua Roy, Sean Farrell, and Logan Mailloux will need to step up their game if the Laval Rocket hopes to make the playoffs.
