In the hockey Montreal, Laine’s movements are closely monitored. Local 98.5 radio channel supplier Martin McGuire criticizes the attitude of a Finn who sits outside the lineup on Tuesday.
– I looked at Patrik Laine in my workouts, and I am not convinced that he was physically or mentally ready. He is a bit marise and is alone in the corner. He is not interacting with other players. As for his body language, it seems as if the curtains were closed, mcguire rumble.
Capitals leads the match 3-1. For the second round, four wins.
