Canadiens Receive Positive Update on Noah Dobson Ahead of Weekend Game Against the Senators
Noah Dobson has finally given reassuring news about his health, and everything indicates that a quick return could change the team's plans as early as Saturday.
After an injury sustained in the game against the Maple Leafs, the organization finally gave a concrete sign about Noah Dobson this morning in Brossard.
Anthony Martineau of TVA Sports shared an update that completely changes the tone around the young defenseman.
Noah Dobson feels extremely well and could be ready for Saturday's game
In a post that reassured many fans, Martineau wrote:
"Noah Dobson feels extremely well and should play Saturday."
It's a major turnaround, especially after the concern of the past few days when his absence worried many fans.
This announcement also reported by TVA sports, suggests that the Canadiens could count on a key piece right from the start, which already avoids a defensive headache.
I'm not certain if the Habs will take the chance to play him, especially considering they're facing the Senators again.
If you've been living under a rock for the past 24 hours, yesterday's game against Ottawa was one of the most physical and dirty preseason games I've seen in years.
Honestly, I think seeing Dobson ready as early as Saturday would completely change the energy around the club just days before the season opener, but I would respect the decision to keep him out.
Everyone is therefore waiting for official confirmation, but the simple fact that he "feels extremely well" is already a victory for the Canadiens and their fans.
