Around 10:30 this morning, the Montreal Canadiens players jumped on the ice for their full practice of the day, but there were several absentees:
However, it is worrying for another notable absentee of the day.
Concerning news for Kent Hughes
"Once again, no
Sean Monahan at Canadiens practice. He returned to non-contact practice two Saturdays ago. We haven't seen him on the ice since." - Eric Engels
"Sean Monahan is still not at CH practice today. It's starting to smell bad for the trade deadline, unfortunately!" - Marc-Olivier Beaudoin
"Sean Monahan is not on the ice for the Canadiens' practice. Again." - Arpon Basu
Monahan's sudden absence is indeed starting to become concerning. He seemed to be on his way back to the game, practicing with his teammates, but there was obviously a sudden problem.
Let's really hope it's not too serious.
First, because he's solid for the Montreal Canadiens and brings a lot to the ice, second, for the sake of his long-term physical health, and third, because it's obvious he won't bring a 2023 first round pick back to the Habs if he's injured (at the trade deadline).
We still have no official word from the CH on this, but it should come.
