Therefore, he will not participate in today's practice, which is taking place right now, in preparation for tomorrow's game against the San Jose Sharks.
Please also note that the Canadiens have indeed called the media for a press conference, immediately after the on-ice session.
Martin St-Louis will answer journalists' questions, along with some selected players.
It will be interesting to hear what he has to say about Anderson, but also about players like Patrik Laine and company. (with a clear mind)
If we go back to number 17, as the excellent Anthony Marcotte of BPM Sports points out, Anderson is clearly playing while quite severely injured right now.
We saw it yesterday, but we've also seen it in previous games; he is often writhing in pain on the bench, and he's often hurting, but he stays in the game despite it all and continues to give everything for his team.
Now, that's a true warrior!
Hoping he can inspire a few people.
Anderson, 30 years old, has 18 points in 52 games this season, including 8 goals.
The 6-foot-3, 226-pound forward is having his best season in Montreal in quite a while.
He shows that he has a lot of heart and wants to give everything for the Canadiens' logo.
Details to follow.
