Long-term injury with the Canadiens: The Montreal organization has just announced that defenseman Chris Wideman will have to be absent
Shortly after announcing that the 27-year-old center, Christian Dvorak, would have to be absent until November, the organization also confirmed a new injury.
Indeed, as Renaud Lavoie had reported a few weeks ago, defenseman Chris Wideman has still not recovered from his back injury, and will therefore be forced to miss the start of the season.
«Defenseman Chris Wideman will be kept out of play for an indefinite period due to a back injury.» - Montreal Canadiens
Let's strongly hope that these two injuries are not a harbinger of what awaits the Montreal Canadiens this season!
After collecting 27 points in 64 games during his first season with the Tricolore, Chris Wideman struggled a lot last year, accumulating only six assists in 46 matches.
