Sam Montembeault said he tore two of his three groin muscles in a Ryan Leonard shot just before the first TV timeout of the second period. Said he thought he could play through it, but he allowed the Chychrun goal “because of that” so he pulled himself. Could have played in 2nd round.

Don’t know if anyone will go there, but injuries tend to happen when overused.. can’t help but think it might have played a part, Sam has never played this much before.
Battling for 8th took its toll, not just on him.
