Patrik Laine steps in to defend his teammate after a hard hit during Montreal Canadiens practice
At the Montreal Canadiens rookie camp in Brossard, young players hit the ice alongside veterans like Patrik Laine, who joined the regulars for a high-energy, competitive practice.
The intensity was evident, especially in the corners, as they geared up for the upcoming season.
A standout moment came when David Savard accidentally delivered a big hit on Michael Pezzetta. What caught attention was Patrik Laine's immediate response, stepping in to defend his teammate. While there was no bad intent from Savard, Laine's quick reaction showed his commitment to the team.
Laine's instinct to protect his teammates bodes well for handling similar situations during real games. His integration into the Canadiens' lineup looks seamless, and he seems ready to bring that same intensity once the season begins!
