Insider Confirms Unfortunate Rumor Involving Blue Jackets Players and Patrik Laine
The excellent David Calabretta from The Fourth Period has added to the rumours circulating about Montreal Canadiens forward Patrik Laine.
Interestingly enough, this came up during my Christmas party last night, so it seems to remain a major topic of discussion today.
Let us recall that a troubling theory has been circulating since Monday, suggesting that Columbus Blue Jackets players were targeting Patrik Laine's already injured shoulder.
The TVA Sports journalist notably mentioned this:
«They were hitting specific spots, and the Blue Jackets players knew exactly what they were doing.. And it had an effect; he had to leave the game.»
- Renaud Lavoie, speaking here about Laine's left shoulder.
An Upper-Body Injury for Patrik Laine
This was announced by the Montreal Canadiens, and the excellent David Calabretta (The Fourth Period) later added this:
Apprently, the Blue Jackets were targeting Laine's already injured shoulder throughout the game, hence Montreal shutting him down.
How about that for a «culture».
- David Calabretta
We may get answers to our questions soon, but it's truly unfortunate to see that several sources report Blue Jackets players were attempting to harm their former teammate, forcing him to leave the game.
There's even a video circulating that easily supports these claims:
Let's hope Laine can return to play quickly. We will keep you updated on any developments.
