Canadiens Make a Notable Roster Move Involving David Reinbacher
The Montreal Canadiens have confirmed that defenseman David Reinbacher has been assigned to the Laval Rocket.
I know, I know - no one was really expecting Reinbacher to play with the Canadiens this season.
So of course, it's not huge news in itself, but I think it's a very positive development!
This means that after injuring his hand several weeks ago, the young Austrian now seems to be fully recovered.
His return to play with Laval probably indicates that his rehabilitation is complete and that he's ready to get back into game rhythm.
"The Canadiens have loaned defenseman David Reinbacher to the Laval Rocket."

David Reinbacher finally ready to get back into action with the Laval Rocket
Just recently, Pascal Vincent, head coach of the Rocket, had hinted that everything was going well for the young defenseman.
"His rehabilitation is going very, very well. He's skating, he's training, and we should see him soon." - Pascal Vincent
It now seems that this moment has arrived.
As mentioned, Reinbacher suffered a hand fracture during a preseason game against the Toronto Maple Leafs, forcing him to miss nearly five weeks of activity.
Here's what Marco D'Amico said on the matter:
"Due to being injured, the Canadiens had to keep David Reinbacher on their NHL roster.
He's now healthy and eligible to play, likely this weekend, and is being sent back to Laval.
** Note that Reinbacher has been physically in Laval this whole time training and skating."
