We were treated to a great surprise this morning during the Montreal Canadiens' morning practice, as forward Sean Monahan jumped on the ice with his teammates!

See the official announcement from the organization:

Forward Sean Monahan will participate in today's morning skate (no-contact jersey

- Montreal Canadiens

So Monahan was indeed back at practice Thursday morning in Raleigh, where the Habs are set to face the Hurricanes in Carolina.

Monahan was wearing a jersey indicating that he can't receive contact, but it's definitely a big step in the right direction, especially with the NHL trade deadline just two weeks away.

Monahan, 28, has a solid 17 points in 25 games this season, his first with the Habs. He was acquired this summer from the Calgary Flames with a first round pick for future considerations.
