"It's probably a blessing in disguise of what transpired," Lamoriello added. "They detected this, something that you're sometimes born with, but never knew... His quality of life will be 100% and he will be able to play once this procedure is done."
Lou announced that Reilly has recovered from his concussion—considering how bad it looked, that's great to hear—but it turned out to be a blessing in disguise of sorts in that the testing revealed he needed heart surgery, which he'll undergo today.
Romanov participated fully at practice yesterday, lining up with Noah Dobson, and felt optimistic about playing tonight. That would mean Isaiah George plays with Ryan Pulock, and Scott Mayfield with Dennis Cholowski.
Injury updates include Alex Romanov being a game-time decision, Mat Barzal and Adam Pelech with their upper-body injuries waiting to be cleared to resume skating, and Anthony Duclair with his lower-body injury not quite ready to skate but the team hopes he can in the near future.
