Karine Hains talks about Laine's return to the Habs on the Montréal Canadiens site.
There's no denying that Laine is a much needed infusion of talent to the Canadiens' formation, but he's not going to be season's savior and it's much too early to talk about a contract extension.
The big Finn is still signed for another season after this one, meaning he still has 138 games to play wearing the Tricolore.
Karine Hains talks about Laine and the Habs game vs the Islanders on the Montréal Canadiens site.
Montreal Canadiens' coach Martin St-Louis didn't want to make Patrik Laine wait too long before he could get rid of those early debuts jitters, and he sent his second line on the ice to start the game against the New York Islanders.
Unsurprisingly, the crowd was very vocal every time the Finnish sniper touched the puck, becoming the second player to provoke that reaction this season after Lane Hutson.
