Big surprise during today's practice for the Canadiens as Kirby Dach made a solid appearance
Martin St-Louis and Trevor Letowski's team could well count on major reinforcement, with the excellent Kirby Dach.
In any case, it really seems to be a possibility.
For the first time since October, and obviously for the first time since his surgery, the big center was back at practice WITH his teammates.
It is reminded that there are 14 games left in the season, so he still has plenty of time:
"Kirby Dach is participating in practice WITH his teammates.
Wearing a no-contact jersey, but still.
The mere fact of seeing him in action with the group is excellent news."
- Anthony Martineau
Imagine the plot twist if he comes back to play as early as this week, while some have assured he would not play for the rest of the season.
In any case, normally, returning to practice with teammates is one of the last steps before returning to play.
If the Habs were in an intense race for the NHL playoffs, he would probably come back much faster, but for now there is absolutely no rush and that's perfect as it is.
It remains extremely encouraging to see him back at practice.
However, one player is missing:
"The Canadiens players are on the Rogers Arena ice for the practice session.
Joshua Roy is the only absentee, returned to Montreal and absent for an indefinite period." - Patrick Friolet, RDS More details will follow during press conferences!
