As a player like Kirby Dach finally returns to play and everyone seems healthy, a setback has just fallen on Martin St-Louis and Kent Hughes.

Indeed, apart from Rafaël Harvey-Pinard, who will miss until December, the Canadiens' roster was in full health, including Kirby Dach, who missed 80 consecutive games.

On Wednesday, defenseman Kaiden Guhle underwent surgery to remove his appendix. It's a routine operation that shouldn't take too long for recovery, but the consequences might be less minor than we think.

While the organization mentioned they would have more information in a week, it is now possible that he could miss the entire training camp and the start of the season.

This is what Renaud Lavoie mentioned this morning on BPM Sports.

"But what if his absence stretches out? This morning, during his segment on BPM Sports in Le club du matin, Renaud Lavoie was asked if he had any news on Kaiden Guhle. And he, who has asked questions to well-placed sources on the subject, claims it's too early to say if he will be ready for the start of the season."

- Charles-Alexis Brisebois


To progress and become more competitive, the Canadiens must absolutely avoid injuries, but the scenario seems to be repeating. At least, it could repeat.

It's important to remember that Kaiden Guhle is only 21 years old, and missing a training camp will certainly have negative repercussions. Imagine if he also has to miss the start of the season!

He is the second most used defenseman by Martin St-Louis on average. Losing him for a longer duration could be very bad for the Canadiens.

Let's hope this is not the case and that he will return to play very quickly!
