Last night, the Canadiens made a surprising announcement involving forward Joel Armia. We absolutely did not see it coming, but while announcing the return of Patrik Laine to the lineup, the Habs also announced the unexpected departure of Armia.
It didn’t take long for many to start making possible connections, and it’s easy to understand why.
It must be said that Patrik Laine’s infamous virus sparked a lot of talk and raised many questions and concerns. So, it is quite unusual to see that he was ready to return to play right when Joel Armia got injured.
Unfortunately, as usual, the Canadiens remained very vague regarding the circumstances surrounding Joel Armia’s injury.
However, Renaud Lavoie had more details.
Renaud Lavoie reveals, in detail, the real reason for Joel Armia’s absence last night
According to his information, we learn that Joel Armia injured his left hand during the game against the Vancouver Canucks.
He was able to finish the game, but he had to forfeit the matchup against the Seattle Kraken, which was surprisingly a rather significant loss.
Let’s really hope it’s not too serious for Armia, especially since it forced Martin St-Louis to (once again) overuse his captain, Nick Suzuki.
Yes, in addition to his heavy minutes at 5-on-5 and on the power play, Suzuki also had a major role on the penalty kill last night.
Poor Nick.. Anyway, he’s in great shape and always says yes to playing more!
We will keep you updated as soon as we have more news regarding Joel Armia.
