Things Heat Up in Montreal: 'Nobody Here Believes Patrik Laine Has the Flu'
There is a rather strange story unfolding with the Montreal Canadiens right now, and it involves forward Patrik Laine.
As you know, Laine has missed the last five days due to what the organization claims are "flu-like symptoms," but according to RDS journalist Luc Gélinas, there's more to the story.
We mentioned his comments earlier (from his post), but now the journalist has provided more details live on television, on the show RDS, 5 a 7.
No one believes that Patrik Laine has the flu
Here is an excerpt of what Gélinas said on RDS:
"No one here believes that [Patrik Laine] has the flu.."
- Luc Gélinas
You have to read between the lines a bit, but let's just say that his tone and body language speak volumes.
We highly recommend his full segment on RDS.
This is truly a fascinating situation.

Has Martin St-Louis really reached the point where he prefers having Michael Pezzetta in the lineup over Patrik Laine?
Is this decision coming from Martin St-Louis?
We should have answers in the coming hours, but this is a story that's generating a lot of buzz in the Montreal Canadiens' circle right now.
Hopefully Laine doesn't miss another 10 days this time around because of a "flu"..
