Harvey-Pinard let something slip during the press conference and he just revealed exclusive information
We often say it, but we absolutely love Rafael Harvey-Pinard.
He's so genuine, close to the fans, and it's so easy to identify with him. The Quebecois forward stays away from the typical script, he's always 100% himself, and you can see he's living his dream right now.
Yesterday, we mentioned that he'll have a golden opportunity tonight against the Minnesota Wild, on the Canadiens' 1st line, alongside Cole Caufield and Nick Suzuki.
How do we know this?
Simply because Harvey-Pinard himself announced it during the press conference.
«Rafael Harvey-Pinard confirmed to the media members that he will have the opportunity to complete the unit of Cole Caufield and Nick Suzuki, Tuesday evening, during the Wild's visit to the Bell Centre!»
Via RDS
However, there was some confusion today.
During the press conference with head coach Martin St-Louis, he completely declined to confirm it and did not want to publicly disclose his decision regarding his lines.
«Martin St-Louis says we will find out the lines tonight during the warm-up.» - Via Arpon Basu
He didn't want to reveal anything.
Oops. It seems like Harvey-Pinard let slip some information that Martin St-Louis wanted to keep to himself.
Of course, it's not a big deal. Let's just categorize this as a humorous incident and attribute it to "RHP's" inexperience in front of the media.
So it'll be interesting to see tonight if Raphael will indeed be on the 1st line, but all signs point to yes. (even if Martin wanted to keep his new lines a secret)
