During today's game against the New York Rangers, we obviously noticed that the young Juraj Slafkovsky left towards the dressing room of his team and he never came back afterwards.

We were wondering what was going on in this file, especially since contrary to usual, the Montreal Canadiens organization had not given any news about him, and the question was not asked to head coach Martin St-Louis during his press conference, but well, we now have some news.

Our fears have just been confirmed, Slafkovsky is indeed unfortunately injured.

Another injury that hits the CH.

"The Canadiens are announcing that it is a lower body injury for Juraj Slafkovsky. No idea yet on how long he will be out. He will be evaluated in Montreal. Expensive trip for the CH, along with Jake Evans who was injured Saturday as well." - Eric Engels, Sportsnet

More details to follow.
