Canadiens Announce Multiple Injury Updates


The Montreal Canadiens have made some injury announcements. Forward Rafael Harvey-Pinard will be out for the next four to six weeks due to a lower-body injury, defenseman Jordan Harris is out day-to-day with an upper-body injury, and defenseman Kaiden Guhle is being evaluated for an undisclosed injury.

Harvey-Pinard, 25, has dealt with injury trouble all season, and this is only the latest example of it. The young winger has had a tough 2023-24 season because of his inability to stay healthy, as he has just one goal and seven points in 24 games played.

Harris, 23, has also dealt with injury trouble this season, so it is tough to see him be sidelined yet again. He suffered his injury during the Canadiens' recent contest to the St. Louis Blues. In 30 games on the season, he has one goal, six points, and a minus-4 rating. 

Guhle also was injured against the Blues, but at this time, there has not been too many specifics regarding his condition. The Habs will be hoping that this is not anything major, as he is one of their top young defenseman. In 48 games this season with the Canadiens, he has four goals, 12 points, and a minus-7 rating.

Alas, here's to hoping that each of these Canadiens players have a speedy recovery and suffer no setbacks along the way.
