A new report has come out that has potentially revealed a timeline for Patrik Laine to return to the Montreal Canadiens lineup.

The Montreal Canadiens have been reeling over the past couple of days after star winger Patrik Laine suffered a knee injury. The injury occurred after a major knee on knee collision with Cedric Pare. Since suffering the injury a lot of speculation has begun regarding Patrik Laine's exact injury and recovery time. He was seen around the facility on crutches walking around which has given some fans hope.

Patrik Laine was working hard to show that he is still an elite player after the blockbuster trade that sent him from the Columbus Blue Jackets to the Canadiens. The Montreal Canadiens were hoping Patrik Laine would be a key piece for the Montreal Canadiens in their pursuit of a spot back in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. At his peak, Patrik Laine is one of the best goal scorers in the NHL and looked ready for a huge season before this unfortunate injury.

Today a new report has come out from radio host Steve Koalas that has provided a timeline for Patrik Laine to potentially come back into the Montreal Canadiens lineup.
