Canadiens: Rafael Harvey-Pinard Out for Four Months With Broken Leg

At 11 a.m. Friday morning, the Montreal Canadiens released a medical update on forward Rafael Harvey-Pinard.

The forward underwent a successful surgery following a broken leg during a pick-up game between AHL and NHL players. He is expected to be sidelined for the next four months.

The 25-year-old winger played in 45 games last season, accumulating 10 points. He suffered a lower-body injury that interfered with his availability. It is unclear whether or not he broke the same leg that was injured last season.
