Martin St-Louis has confirmed an important news for the team following Monday's Canadiens' practice.

Indeed, the return of Christian Dvorak is imminent, despite initially being expected to miss the rest of the season. This is very good news for the Canadiens, as they have been lacking experienced centers.

Furthermore, if Kent Hughes hopes to trade Dvorak during the summer, his return will be very timely before the end of the season.

"Dvorak is now being evaluated daily. There is a strong chance we will see him again before the end of the season, according to MSL," said Anthony Martineau of TVA Sports.

Now, the issue of Kirby Dach remains to be resolved. It is known that he has started practicing with a regular jersey as well, but he is still undergoing rehabilitation exercises.

Rest assured that the Canadiens will let us know if it happens, as with this official announcement regarding Christian Dvorak.

"Christian Dvorak was seen wearing a jersey suggesting he could receive contact. The forward continues to recover from a torn pectoral muscle, with the announcement that he would miss the rest of the season made back in January.

During his press conference today, head coach Martin St-Louis stated that Dvorak's condition is now being evaluated daily, and there are 'good chances' that he will hit the ice again in a game this season," as stated by the Montreal Canadiens.

One thing is certain, it's always good news when players return from such significant injuries. Let's hope they can stay healthy next year.

In the case of Christian Dvorak, it will be his final year of contract, and it would be very surprising if Kent Hughes offers him an extension. He could therefore be traded before the trade deadline.
