Incredible surprise for the Canadiens and major announcement about Kirby Dach

The Canadiens took off for a long trip out West today, and there were two pleasant surprises on board the plane.

Indeed, Kirby Dach and Christian Dvorak were on board, which means there's a strong chance they'll start practicing with their teammates during the trip.

We know that both forwards were practicing together in Brossard this week and showing signs that they could return to play sooner than expected.

It's becoming more and more real and possible in their case with this announcement, as there are still 16 games left to play.
