Major injury and season over for Josh Anderson? The Canadiens' forward sets the record straight by stating he will play tonight

In the last few hours, we learned that Christian Dvorak would miss the rest of the season and that Josh Anderson was part of the team's morning practice.

Certainly, it's a topsy-turvy world. We never thought that number 28 would have to miss so much time, and conversely, we never thought that number 17 would be back in the game so quickly.

It is now confirmed, as Josh declared he will be ready to play in the press conference.

Josh Anderson says he's good to go tonight. Anderson will be honoured prior to puck-drop for being the December recipient of the Molson Cup.



We've seen the footage of the injury in Dallas over and over, and it didn't look very encouraging. It's a true miracle that he is back on skates less than 48 hours later.

One can say the forward was very scared.

Josh Anderson on his injury in Dallas: "a little bit of a scare; usually as a player when those things happen usually you kinda know right away if something is wrong. Little stunned going back to the room then let it calm down & obviously everything was good from there" - Via Priyanta Emrith

This is excellent news for the player and the team, as Josh has been a new player since early December. He will also be honored before the game for winning the Molson Cup.
