Major: the return to play date for Kirby Dach has officially been revealed
Last night on TVA Sports, journalist Renaud Lavoie provided extremely interesting information regarding the lengthy process of returning to play for Montreal Canadiens' forward Kirby Dach.
Be aware that he was operated on by a very reputable doctor from New York, and this doctor agreed to operate on Dach on one condition.
Here it is: Dach cannot return to play for at least eight months.
«This doctor has seen too many athletes come back to play after six or seven months. It caused other problems. The player would end up injuring a hip or groin.»
«So don't be surprised if Dach jumps on the ice sometime in February.»
«People will say: 'He's going to be back soon!' No, he will not be back soon.»

It's really good to know! The TVA Sports journalist added that a return to play in the playoffs is not impossible for Kirby Dach (if there are playoffs for the CH), but it would be unlikely.
«He needs to rebuild strength around his knee. Don't expect a return to play unless the CH is in the semi-finals or the Stanley Cup finals.»
