The Canadiens hid some things about David Reinbacher’s injury

Anthony Marcotte goes on to say that the Habs didn’t necessarily want to talk about it because fans would have been worried.

Which makes sense.

But, hearing all this, it’s normal to wonder about the state of Reinbacher’s knee.

Without saying that it’s alarming, we can say that it’s distressing to see that one of the club’s top prospects had difficulty playing at the end of the season – when he was supposed to have recovered from his injury – because his knee was often swollen after a game or practice.

And that’s where it gets really scary: if Reinbacher can’t practice hard this summer because he’s in pain, or because his knee is causing him problems, he won’t be able to arrive at the Canadiens’ next training camp in perfect shape.

This could have an impact on his confidence, it could make him a little uncomfortable on the ice, even if he did finish the season well with the Rocket in the playoffs… and the Canadiens’ management must really hope that it settles down quickly, otherwise the problem will become even bigger before long.

I’m having Carey Price flashbacks and it seems to be scaring me…

Overtime

– Jennifer Gardiner leaves Victoire.

– Good question.
