In the last few minutes, players from the Montreal Canadiens jumped onto the ice at the Bell Centre in preparation for tonight's game against the Seattle Kraken. Moreover, RDS journalist Luc Gélinas reported two excellent pieces of news for the fans of the Tricolore.
Indeed, defensemen Arber Xhekaj and David Savard are practicing with their teammates. Additionally, they are no longer wearing non-contact jerseys, suggesting they might soon rejoin Martin St-Louis' lineup.
It's worth noting that veteran David Savard has been sidelined from play since the second week of the NHL season due to a fracture in his left hand. As for the young Arber Xhekaj, he has been forced to watch the games from above following an upper body injury suffered on November 16th against the Vegas Golden Knights.
