When we look at Thursday night's game against the New York Rangers, it's evident that the Canadiens' defense was very poor. One of the players who had a tough evening was Arber Xhekaj.

Despite being very popular among fans, the game seemed to be moving too quickly for him, and he fell victim to turnovers and defensive lapses.

Martin St-Louis will need reinforcements on the blue line, and some good news awaited him in Brossard on Friday.

Unexpectedly, Jordan Harris skated in full gear for 45 minutes. For a player recovering from a concussion, this is a very positive sign.

Harris could potentially be available for Saturday's game, but that remains to be confirmed. One thing is certain; he appears to be in very good shape, and that's very encouraging.
