Montreal Canadiens: Ryan Poehling one of few dealing with playoff injuries
By Omar L
As for Poehling, Chris Peters of CBS Sports tweeted that he was day-to-day and would be evaluated. Their next game is Friday against American International but who knows whether the 2017 first-round pick will be healthy enough to play.
St. Cloud State Brett Larson tells @ESPN_Schick that Ryan Poehling (MTL) is day-to-day and will be reevaluated tomorrow. Not a lot of new information and I don't know how much we'll get before the regional.

Romanov played in all four games of CSKA Moscow’s first-round sweep over Vityaz. However, he’s been a healthy scratch in the second round which went to five games being absent from all of them. We finally got some information on what was going on via Andrew Zadarnowski of Habs Eyes on the Prize who tweeted that Romanov has been dealing with an injury himself.
Alexander Romanov is dealing with an injury, which explains why he has not been playing for CSKA recently in the KHL playoffs.

We also have Ylönen who was ready to start the playoffs with the Pelicans after a decent rookie season putting up 13 goals and 14 assists in 53 games. That had to be cut short as well with the 2018 second-round pick falling to injury during the opening round game against
Some work along the boards saw Ylönen take a check from behind knocking him over and head and shoulder-first into the boards. The Pelicans have played two more games since and Ylönen has yet to return.
Olofsson completes the Habs second-round as far as injured prospects from 2018. He’s been out of the lineup since February 21st with a knee injury and put up three goals and six assists in 34 games before that. Timrå HK begins their series against Oskarshamn on Wednesday and it doesn’t look like Olofsson will be ready for it, but hopefully, that changes at some point in the post-season.
