In short, Martin St-Louis provided an update on Heineman, live from the team's hotel in Salt Lake City.
Right away, in Martin St-Louis' tone, it's clear the situation isn't too serious.
MSL even allowed himself to make a few jokes about it. We love it.
Emil Heineman is doing well. It's unlucky given the way he's been playing.. he gets hurts while walking on the street. It's bizarre.
It looks like car was totaled (because he's so big).

St-Louis added that Emil is currently doing well and noted the bad luck of getting injured in such a way.
«It's unfortunate; he was really having a great run this year. His play was very consistent, and he brought a lot to the team, but I don't think he'll be out for very long.
But we keep going!»
Martin St-Louis
We can't wait to see Heineman back in uniform, and it's clear Martin St-Louis feels the same.
At the start of the press conference, he had a lot of positive things to say about the young player's overall game quality.
St-Louis also made a few adjustments to his lineup for tonight's game against Utah. Alex Newhook and Michael Pezzetta will be in uniform and Sam Montembeault will get the start.
