Eighth in the Atlantic Division, the Montreal Canadiens aren’t having their finest NHL season by any means. Recently, the club was dealt another blow as right winger Cole Caufield went down with a season-ending shoulder injury.
To lighten the mood of his unfortunate situation, the NHL’s official Instagram account published a hilarious post. Nick Suzuki, the center for the Canadiens, recreates the ‘Wolverine meme’ while holding the picture of Caufield.

Updates on the young NHL star’s surgery

In the press conference that was posted on the official website of the NHL, Caufield says, “This happened the first time before Christmas in Dallas, and I just had an awkward fall. I kind of put it back in myself a couple of seconds later and, you know, it wasn’t too bad. The second time was in Nashville. The same thing kind of happened and that time was a little more painful, but our medical staff has done a great job of doing some rehab work on it and making me feel 100% in my opinion.”
He goes on to say that despite his ailments, he would have been included on the Canadiens’ roster if they had been contending for the Stanley Cup this season. Since the club will not be making the playoffs this year, he is relieved to get some time off.
