Canadiens loan forward prospect to Swedish Hockey League
The Montreal Canadiens announced on Friday morning that forward prospect Emil Heineman has been loaned to Leksand IF of the Swedish Hockey League for the remainder of the 2022-23 season.
Heineman was acquired by the Canadiens on February 14th, along with Tyler Pitlick, a conditional first round pick in 2022 and a fifth round pick in 2023 from the Calgary Flames in exchange for Tyler Toffoli.
The 21-year-old suffered an thumb injury during the pre-season and missed six weeks of action, beginning the 2022-23 campaign on season-opening injured reserve.
In three pre-season games, the Leksand native failed to record any points, but had nine shots-on-goal.
Heineman is expected to be in Leksand IF's line-up on Saturday evening when they face-off against Frolunda HC at 6 p.m. Swedish time. Leksand IF currently sit seventh in the SHL standings with seven wins, three overtime/shootout wins and six losses through 16 games.
