About two weeks ago, the Canadiens played with only three centers due to a shortage. While initially, it seemed there were too many players in that position at the beginning of the season, the team is now facing a shortage.
Injuries to Alex Newhook, Christian Dvorak, and Kirby Dach are not helping the situation. Additionally, Sean Monahan has just been traded.
We know that Newhook has resumed training before the break, but he was initially expected to return in early March. According to Hughes, he could come back earlier than expected, which would, of course, be very good news!
