The Montreal Canadiens are hoping for the best but preparing for the worst when it comes to Patrik Laine’s knee injury. In a preseason game against the Toronto Maple Leafs, Laine was helped off the ice after taking a knee-on-knee collision from Cedric Pare.

Unfortunately, Laine's time in Montreal got off to a scary start. The Finnish winger suffered a horrific knee injury after colliding with Toronto Maple Leafs forward Cedric Pare during Saturday's preseason matchup, just over a month after he was traded to the Canadiens.

Canadiens fans are patiently awaiting an update on the condition of Patrik Laine, but a recent sighting is causing some concern.
