In the last few minutes, Montreal Canadiens forward Emil Heineman published a message for the fans.

This means that, just a few hours after the announcement of his accident, the young player is already breaking his silence.

He took the time to thank the fans for their love and support, and he announced that he will be back at 100%. We love it.

These are really good news.

Emil Heineman mentions that he will return stronger than ever

Here is the publication in question:

"Thanks everyone for the love and support lately, I'll be back stronger!

- Emil Heineman

Let's remember, of course, that just a few hours before the game against the Utah team, Heineman was struck by a car that had just performed a dangerous maneuver..

According to several sources, he only suffered a wrist injury, which is excellent news because we all know it could have been much worse.

In the late afternoon yesterday, we indeed learned that it was an employee of the city of Salt Lake City who was the driver of the car that hit Heineman.

An investigation is underway, and according to what the Canadiens announced through an official statement, the forward will need to miss three to four weeks of activity due to this accident.

Details will follow.
