Earlier today, the Montreal Canadiens organization made a bizarre announcement.
It was probably the most talked about injury update in the history of the CH.
"This is the most dramatic medical update in history."
- Alexandre Gascon
The situation is very well summarized here:
It raises many questions:
"So basically.
Dach was sick and it was related to a lower body injury.
No length of time was given about his absence."
- Patrick Friolet
So we have no idea when he will return to play.
A case skillfully avoided.
Following this bizarre medical update released by the CH, many fans and journalists noticed something in particular.
The CH completely avoided talking about Arber Xhekaj (and Sean Monahan):
"Unfortunately, still no update on Sean Monahan's medical conditions.
Same thing in the Arber Xhekaj case, who was supposed to meet with a specialist last I heard." - Patrick Friolet
"The confusing medical update on Dach's injury is the biggest smoke screen for the lack of information on Monahan (and Xhekaj)." - Andrew Zadarnowski
One thing's for sure, it's raising a lot of questions and a lot of reactions:
"In the category of "This is bullshit."
Kirby Dach: What exactly is it
We continue with the "highs" and "lows" of the body
And by the way Monahan and Gallagher - update?? Are they still part of the team? If so why no news from them?"
- Stephane Leroux, RDS These are files to follow, but one thing is certain, there is a lot of confusion right now.
When we say it's really special...
