A few hours before tonight's game against the Seattle Kraken, the Montreal Canadiens have announced a press conference.
This is the moment we've been waiting for to get an official answer regarding the Patrik Laine situation, as there will be no morning skate today.
See what the Canadiens mentioned in their official statement.
"Jakub Dobes will be in net for the Canadiens.
The status of Patrik Laine remains uncertain, although head coach Martin St-Louis indicated yesterday that he "hopes" the Finnish forward will be in the lineup tonight in Seattle.
The Canadiens does not plan to practice on the ice this morning.
However, selected players will address the media at the hotel before the game."

If we go by yesterday, we received the official answer regarding Patrik Laine's status around 3:00 PM, so today's update shouldn't take much longer.
The Canadiens Call a Press Conference: We Will Get Our Answer on Patrik Laine, but Renaud Lavoie Seems to Have Already Given It
Indeed, during his morning segment on BPM Sports, journalist Renaud Lavoie candidly stated, "Now, it's certain that Patrik Laine will return tonight."
So, if we go by that, unless there is a last-minute change regarding Laine's condition, we should expect Martin St-Louis to confirm Laine's return to the lineup in the next few minutes (during his press conference).
We will keep you updated with further details, but in short, during the press conference in the next few minutes, Martin St-Louis is expected to confirm Laine's return to the lineup for tonight's game against the Kraken, live from Seattle.
