There are many questions about his health and his future.
In the last few minutes, the Montreal Canadiens interim head coach, Martin St-Louis, was in a press briefing and he announced a small turnaround.
Finally, the number 31 will travel with his teammates to New York (contrary to what was announced yesterday) but he will be there for medical reasons:
Carey having to (already) go back to his surgeon, when he seems to have aggravated his injury, smells bad... Unfortunately.
While Martin St-Louis refused to talk about a big relapse, and while he hid his concern, Josh Anderson stepped up.
It confirms what we thought, it confirms our concerns. This is indeed bad news, and fans are right to be concerned about this impromptu visit by Carey, in New York. The fact that he already has to go back to his surgeon doesn't smell good.
Anderson further verbalized his fears, and those of the players in general. They're in the same boat as us fans.
