Recently, the Laval Rocket confirmed that forward Lias Andersson, who had a great start to the season with 7 goals in 10 games, suffered a lower body injury during team practice.
While most fans hoped that the Swedish player would return to play quickly, Anthony Marcotte, the official announcer for the farm team's games, reported rather worrying information about the health of the former first-round pick.
According to what he heard, the Rocket's management fears that Lias Andersson may be out for a long term. The team's doctors believe that an old injury is the cause of his current absence, which could require a longer rehabilitation period before he can return to play.
It's really sad for the 25-year-old who wanted to use this opportunity to revive his career and potentially earn a spot in the NHL. We sincerely hope he will be able to return to play soon, as he is crucial to the success of the farm team.
