However, as it is too often the case with the CH for some time now, some soldiers fell during the duel. Michael Pezzetta and Tyler Pitlick left for the dressing room and never returned. Pezzetta, in particular, seemed really frustrated with the situation.
In a sign that it looks pretty serious, after the match, the organization announced an emergency recall:
We then immediately learned that Pezzetta and T.Pitlick did not make the trip to New Jersey with their teammates. They will not play today. (Ylonen, meanwhile, is expected to be inserted into the lineup)
Jesse Ylonen, 22, has 30 points (12 goals) in 45 games this season with the Laval Rocket of the AHL and 2 points (1 goal) in 7 games with the Tricolore.
