The Worst is Confirmed for Kaiden Guhle as Canadiens Make an Announcement
During tonight's loss to the Winnipeg Jets, the Montreal Canadiens lost the services of young defenseman Kaiden Guhle.
This is a developing story, and we will update this article every minute, but for now, we know that the Habs quickly announced (in the third period) that Guhle's work night was over.
It's never a good sign.
By the way, the reaction of head coach Martin St-Louis upon hearing the news unfortunately spoke volumes.
An alarming lower-body injury for Kaiden Guhle
Everything indeed points to Guhle injuring his knee, and it does not look good at all.
Let's really hope for a pleasant surprise, but we'll have to wait and see..
Guhle was injured on the following play:
«Kaiden Guhle takes a strange fall and seems to injure his right leg.
He cannot put pressure on his leg when he returns to the bench and locker room.»
Update: The Canadiens announce that it's a lower-body injury for Kaiden Guhle, and he will require further evaluation.
Guhle missed time earlier this season due to an upper-body injury. The 23-year-old entered Tuesday with 14 points in 43 games while ranking third on the team in average ice time (21:18).
If he misses extended time, it will surely hurt the Canadiens' chances to make the playoffs.
More details to follow.
