This morning, there are two pieces of news to note from Laval.

First, the Canadiens announced that Lucas Condotta, who is the captain of the Rocket de Laval, has signed a new two-year contract with the Habs organization.

This is a two-part agreement.

He has been in Laval for several years and has had a few call-ups here and there in Montreal. But clearly, he knows that for the next two years, his role is not going to change.

And he is obviously okay with that.

Without his contract, he would have been eligible for full autonomy this summer. The Habs are therefore keeping an important piece of the puzzle in place since even if Condotta only has three goals and 23 points in 50 games, he is appreciated.

He plays his captain’s role well.

But in this race for the playoffs for the Rocket, it’s not the only news this morning related to the farm club, as a medical update on Rafaël Harvey-Pinard has been announced.

We learn that due to an upper-body injury, the Québécois forward will be out for six weeks.

His regular season is therefore over, and he could return in the playoffs, if all goes well. And if he played for the Panthers or the Golden Knights, his salary would be– ah no, sorry: I’m mixing up several files.

This is a tough blow for RHP, who missed the start of the Canadiens’ season due to an injury and has never been able to regain his place in Montreal. He will be a restricted free agent this summer.


Overtime

– He won’t do like Brett Favre.

– Ah yes?

– Speaking of the Rocket.
