Max Pacioretty Knee Injury

According to the Montreal Canadiens, Max Pacioretty suffered a knee injury that will take approximately 12 weeks to recover.  The injury occurred during off-ice training.

With the 2015 NHL season opening on October 7th, Pacioretty should be back just in time.

He is coming off arguably the best offensive year of his career, with 37 goals and 67 points.  He was also the Habs second leading scorer during the playoffs.

Hopefully there will be no complications during the recovery, as Montreal cannot afford to lose him for any significant part of the season.
