Very concerning announcement from the Canadiens after the game against the Predators

He wasn't in uniform on Sunday night either, which raised more concerns. Now it's confirmed; he will be out for a good while.

This is particularly worrisome because Pearson has a history of hand injuries, which could have ended his career last year.

Let's hope he can truly recover in 4 to 6 weeks since if his past infection issues resurface, it could really be the end for him.
