Bad news and injury for Samuel Montembeault?
Disturbing information is circulating regarding the health status of the Montreal Canadiens' number one goaltender, Samuel Montembeault, following the match against the Boston Bruins.
An Injury for Montembeault?
Many observers are asking the question.
«We should be concerned about Samuel Montembeault's neck. Why? Because on Saturday night, the goaltender really seemed to be in pain in the neck.
He took a shot in the first period that seemed to shake him up, and then he spent the game shaking his neck during the stoppages in play. He seemed quite uncomfortable, in fact.»
- Charles-Alexis Brisebois, DansLesCoulisses
Therefore, this will be a situation to monitor over the next few minutes.
The Canadiens players are getting ready to hit the ice for today's practice, and that will give us an important answer.
If Samuel is there, it will be a good sign.
If Samuel is not there, it's certain to become worrisome.
«I saw a Samuel Montembeault who was uncomfortable and hesitant after those goals.» - Martin McGuire, commentator for Habs games

Montembeault, 27 years old, has a record of 10-7-4 this season, an average of 3.11, and a save percentage of 0.903. If he is bothered by an injury or discomfort, why not rest him a bit?
