Rafaël Harvey-Pinard clears waivers, and the Canadiens announce his assignment to the Laval Rocket
See the official announcement.
Rafaël Harvey-Pinard, 25 years old, is a hard-working forward standing 5 foot 9 inches and weighing 181 pounds.
A seventh-round pick by the Montreal Canadiens in 2019, he has accumulated 31 points in 83 career NHL games, including 17 goals. Notably, he registered 20 points in 34 games (14 goals) during the 2022-2023 season.
This season with the Laval Rocket, he has tallied 1 point (1 goal) in five games.
He will now continue his season with Pascal Vincent's squad. A significant boost for the Rocket.
We wish RHP a strong stint "down there," and if all goes well, seeing him back with the Habs later this season is definitely a possibility.
In the meantime, Joshua Roy has clearly surpassed him in the hierarchy.
More details to come.
