Troubling statement: the end of Raphaël Harvey-Pinard with the Habs?

The honeymoon phase is over for Raphaël Harvey-Pinard. When he arrived last year, he never looked back, but this year has been a different story.

Victim of two serious injuries, he was limited to just 45 games and collected 10 points, including two goals. Last year, we're talking about 20 points and 14 goals in 34 games.

Knowing his character and intensity at work, there's no doubt RHP will arrive at the next camp with a chip on his shoulder, but let's be honest, he shouldn't be playing in the top 6 on a regular basis anymore.

So he'll have to battle with other players like Joshua Roy, Emil Heineman, Joel Armia, and several others, for a spot among the last 6 forwards.


The guys from La Poche Bleue discussed it and according to André Roy, a loyal collaborator of the show, it all depends on training camp.


We're not just talking about his career with the Canadiens here, but rather in the entire NHL. It's a pretty major question, but it's clear.

All teams like hard workers like RHP, so I'm not too worried about his career. If he stays healthy, I believe he can provide very good service to the Canadiens for several seasons, maybe even be a spark plug.
