Canadiens' Patrik Laine: Powers up in win
Laine scored three power-play goals and had five shots on net in Tuesday's 6-1 win over the Sabres.
All three of Laine's goals were one-timers from the left faceoff circle. Since coming off the injured list earlier this month, the 26-year-old forward has six tallies (all on the power play) over seven outings. The Canadiens are heavily dependent on the top line for scoring, so having a healthy Laine has been a boost for the club.

Canadiens' Patrik Laine: Extends solid start to season
Laine scored a power-play goal and added an even-strength assist in Monday's 3-2 shootout win over Anaheim.
The 26-year-old didn't make his season debut until Dec. 3 due to a knee injury, but he's been fantastic since recovering, recording three goals and four total points in his first four contests. He's scored his three goals with the man advantage, and Laine should continue to find plenty of opportunities to produce as a member of the top six.

Canadiens' Patrik Laine: Scores in back-to-back games
Laine scored a power-play goal in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Predators.
Laine sustained a knee injury in the preseason and didn't make his season debut until Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Islanders, but he's made his presence felt. He's now recorded power-play goals in his first two contests, and he should continue to see plenty of opportunities to produce as a top-six forward and member of the first power-play unit. This is Laine's first year with the Canadiens after spending the previous three seasons with the Blue Jackets.

Canadiens' Patrik Laine: Scores in return
Laine scored a power-play goal, fired two shots on net, blocked a shot and recorded two hits in Tuesday's 2-1 overtime win over the Islanders.
Laine made his season debut after missing the first 24 games due to a knee injury. He gave the offensively challenged Canadiens a lift when he sniped a shot from the faceoff circle past Ilya Sorokin. Laine joined the second line and was put on the first power-play unit. He finished with 17:27 TOI.

Canadiens' Patrik Laine: Returning to lineup
Laine will make his 2024-25 season debut Tuesday against the Islanders.
Laine will slot in on a line with Kirby Dach and Juraj Slafkovsky. It may take some time for Laine to get readjusted to the speed of the NHL -- in addition to not playing yet this season, Laine suited up for just 18 regular-season games in 2023-24. The right-shot winger should see top-six minutes along with power-play time against the Islanders.

Canadiens' Patrik Laine: Will travel with team
Laine (knee) is set to travel with the Canadiens on their upcoming three-game road trip, which begins Wednesday in Columbus, Eric Engels of Sportsnet reports.
It's unclear if Laine will be activated for Wednesday's matchup against his old team. The 26-year-old winger looks to be close enough to a return to be unofficially in the day-to-day range after switching from non-contact status to a full participant in Monday's practice. In any case, Laine's return will likely have a ripple effect through Montreal's lineup, as he'll command a top-six role and power-play time once cleared to play.

Canadiens' Patrik Laine: Practices in regular jersey
Laine (knee) practiced in a regular jersey Monday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.
Laine resumed skating with his teammates last Wednesday, but he was in a non-contact sweater. However, he took another step in his recovery process Monday by shedding his non-contact jersey. The 26-year-old Laine has been sidelined since September, so he could require some time to get back up to speed before he returns to action for the Canadiens. He could be back in action in early December, and he'll likely be in the mix for roles in the top six and on the No. 1 power-play unit once he's deemed fully healthy.

Canadiens' Patrik Laine: Skating with teammates
Laine (knee) took the ice in a non-contact sweater Wednesday, making his first time skating with teammates since suffering his knee injury in September, Sportsnet reports.
Laine's timeline hasn't changed, with the 26-year-old winger expected back sometime in December given his 2-3 month recovery. Still, it's a step in the right direction for the Finn, who was undoubtedly eager to put together a bounce-back 2024-25 campaign after seeing action in a mere 18 games last year. Once Laine rejoins the lineup, he should push for roles on both the first line and No. 1 power-play unit.

Canadiens' Patrik Laine: Designated for LTIR
Laine (knee), as expected, was placed on long-term injured reserve by the Habs on Tuesday, per PuckPedia.
Laine is not expected back until December at the earliest, so his placement on LTIR was almost a foregone conclusion. Even with his extended stint on the shelf, the 26-year-old winger could still challenge for the 50-point threshold this year, though he'll need to produce at nearly a point-per-game pace to do so. Once given the all-clear, Laine should be a lock for a top-six role in addition to linking up with the No. 1 power-play unit.

Canadiens' Patrik Laine: Facing extended absence
Laine is expected to be sidelined for 2-3 months with a left knee sprain but won't require surgery, the team announced Tuesday.
Given how bad Laine's injury initially looked, 2-3 months certainly feels like good news for the winger. Still, it's another injury-plagued season for the 26-year-old Finn after he was limited to just 18 outings with Columbus last year. When he was healthy, Laine offered top-end offensive output with six goals and three assists, including two power-play points. Without Laine in the lineup, Josh Anderson likely has the inside track on a top-six role. Look for Laine to be placed on long-term injured reserve when the season starts.

Canadiens' Patrik Laine: No official update
Montreal has yet to provide an update on Laine's (knee) status, per Arpon Basu of The Athletic, though he did show up at the rink Sunday.
Laine suffered a knee-on-knee hit against the Leafs on Saturday, and there is plenty of speculation regarding how long (not if) he will be sidelined. At this point, fantasy players will have to continue to wait for more information but should probably be expecting him to miss the start of the 2024-25 campaign. If Laine is in fact out long-term, Josh Anderson could move into the second-line role in addition to linking up with the No. 1 power-play unit.

Canadiens' Patrik Laine: Leaves game with injury
Laine (knee) left Saturday's game after a dangerous knee-on-knee hit, reports TSN.ca.
Toronto's Cedric Pare was flatfooted as Laine entered the Maple Leafs' zone, and it appeared that he stuck out his knee. Laine required assistance to get down the tunnel and was seen throwing his glove and helmet in frustration. Laine has been snakebitten with injuries most of his career and this doesn't look good.

Canadiens' Patrik Laine: Skating with new team
Laine (collarbone) hit the ice with his new teammates ahead of training camp, Luc Gelinas of RDS reports Wednesday.
Laine was acquired by the Canadiens from Columbus in a mid-August trade that saw Jordan Harris headed the other way. Between his collarbone injury and time in the NHL/NHLPA Player Assistance Program, the 26-year-old Laine was limited to just 18 games last season. When he was healthy, the Finn was fairly productive, registering six goals on 41 shots and three assists, including two power-play points. He figures to take on a top-six role with Montreal and should see plenty of opportunities with the No. 1 power-play unit.

Canadiens' Patrik Laine: Obtained in trade
Montreal acquired Laine (collarbone) and a 2026 second-round pick from Columbus on Monday in exchange for Jordan Harris.
Laine generated six goals, nine points, 41 shots on net and 14 blocked shots across 18 regular-season appearances with the Blue Jackets in 2023-24. He has been cleared to return from the NHL/NHLPA Player Assistance Program but is still recovering from a clavicle fracture he sustained against Toronto on Dec. 14. If he is good to go for the beginning of 2024-25, Laine could return to the 50-point plateau with the Canadiens while playing in the top six and seeing time on the power play.

Blue Jackets' Patrik Laine: Cleared from Assistance Program
Laine (personal) was cleared by the NHL/NHLPA Player Assistance Program on Friday, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic reports.
Laine entered the program in late January after missing 17 games with a fractured clavicle. Laine only played in 18 regular-season games with the Blue Jackets in 2023-24, scoring six goals and adding three assists. He has requested a trade out of Columbus and should find a new home before the start of training camp.
