Over the past few hours, another injury has been confirmed within the Montreal Canadiens organization. Indeed, the Laval Rocket has indicated that Quebec forward Nathan Légaré has suffered a lower body injury and will require a more thorough medical evaluation to determine the exact nature of it.
It is also worth noting that the forward had to leave the game early against the Syracuse Crunch on December 30th, as he seemed visibly bothered by significant discomfort. We will have to wait for an official update on his health status to learn more about the duration of his absence.
Moreover, the Canadiens prospect, Joshua Roy, did not participate in the team's morning practice, as he was ill. After a sequence of seven consecutive games without a point, the fifth-round pick in 2021 is slowly starting to find his offensive bearings, having accumulated three goals and five assists (eight points) in his last nine games.
