We’re all waiting for the same thing this morning, aren’t we? We’re all waiting to see what the Habs have to say about Patrik Laine and defenseman David Reinbacher.
But it won’t happen this morning.
The club won’t be issuing a medical update this morning. It could happen later today, but realistically, it’ll have to be tomorrow.
No medical update on Patrik Laine and David Reinbacher at the moment. Maybe later today, but most likely tomorrow.

Basically, it won’t make much difference in the short term as the guys aren’t about to return. Saturday’s eye test doesn’t lie: they’re in bad shape.
Both guys were obviously absent from the rink on the heels of today’s training session. That’s going to be the case for quite a few more days, obviously.
It’s also worth noting that, on the Habs’ official training camp sheet, the two European players are officially on the list of players unable to train.

It’s worth noting that this morning, Laine still showed up in Brossard. My colleague Marc-Olivier Cook immortalized the whole thing when he saw the player show up on the players’ bench.
Obviously, he had a brace on his knee and was on crutches. He’s in no condition to skate.
