Odd. Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Damn, Hopefully he wasn't drunk or anything. Payed the price if he did though. We can only speculate at this point. Hopefully he's good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShakyWalton Posted October 4, 2015 Author Share Posted October 4, 2015 This update from Canadian Press...says he wasnt driving.... By The Canadian Press 14 minutes ago MONTREAL - Montreal Canadiens forward Zack Kassian was treated for minor injuries in hospital Sunday morning after being involved in a traffic accident, a team spokesman said. Reports said Kassian was not driving the vehicle, which crashed into a tree Sunday morning at about 6 a.m. There were two women, one of them the driver, in the vehicle at the time. The Canadiens, who played a pre-season game in Ottawa on Saturday night, were given Sunday off and resume practice on Monday. Kassian, 24, was acquired in a trade with the Vancouver Canucks in the off-season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShakyWalton Posted October 4, 2015 Author Share Posted October 4, 2015 A 20-year old woman was driving the truck, which ran into a tree on Clanranald Ave. A 24-year-old man and 18-year-old woman were passengers in the vehicle, said Montreal police spokesperson Manuel Couture. Speed did not appear to be a factor in the crash, which took place around 6 a.m., said Couture. Old Zack...running around with 2 girls at 6 am during training camp...although it was an off day..but still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaBamba Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 He won't be tested because he was a passenger. I think we can all rest assure that this trade won't come back to haunt us. Sounds like he is still dedicated to screwing up his hockey career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
73 Percent Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 I guess this is the kind of stuff that triggered the trade and low value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ice orca Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Could have been coming back from a party or just going for breakfast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackcanuck Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Kassian suffered “minor injuries,” said Canadiens’ VP Communications Donald Beauchamp and is “under the care of the Montreal Canadiens’ doctors.” A 20-year old woman was driving the truck, which ran into a tree on Clanranald Ave. A 24-year-old man and 18-year-old woman were passengers in the vehicle, said Montreal police spokesperson Manuel Couture. Speed did not appear to be a factor in the crash, which took place around 6 a.m., said Couture. “(Kassian) was all bloodied up and stuff. He was in a daze,” said Steve Petrenko, a resident on the street where the accident took place. He described the man as a big guy, who he thought looked familiar. “He had a hard time walking, and he almost took a fall,” Petrenko told the Montreal Gazette. The witness says the man was brought into the lobby of his residential building. He was asked by paramedics if he knew where he was, to which he replied “Quebec,” said Petrenko. When asked his name, Petrenko said the man responded “Zack Kassian.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HC20.0 Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Could have been coming back from a party or just going for breakfast. With two woman in his car, pretty sure it was the former, which is why we traded him. Hope he gets better soon though. I was involved in a major car accident myself earlier in the year. If he gets whiplash, he'll be out for awhile. Hopefully he's alright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odd. Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Kassian pimping girls at 6am? Zack's a beaut. Jokes aside, what on earth was he doing with 2 females at 6am xD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaBamba Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Could have been coming back from a party or just going for breakfast. Of course, hitting a tree on the way to breakfast is far more logical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mackcanuck Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 I am sure they were nice young ladies! I think Zach was just making sure they got home safely. So the deal now is Prust for a 5th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldnews Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Perhaps try sparing the young man the judgement? Big deal - he was a passenger in a car accident. What guilt! Who here didn't/doesn't like to hang out with young women when you were/are that age (or any age for that matter). Day off. Of course he's going to be out chasing a life - he's hardwired to do so. Hope the injuries aren't serious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaBamba Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 you've never gone for breakfast after a night of drinking? It was like he was implying that he woke up early and innocently went for breakfast with 2 young girls. The texts would look like this. Zack - Hey girls wanna get a booster juice before we hit the yoga studio? 18 year old girl - "Sure Zack, but when you come and get us can my older sister drive your truck? Zack - Absolutely.

CanucksJay Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 Haha breakfast at 6AM on a Sunday morning? Maybe if it was a weekday it would be more feasible. Do people leave the house before 6AM on weekends to eat breakfast? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
