The Montreal Canadiens saw five/sixth’s of their defensive unit land on the Injured Reserve. Due to these injuries, the Canadiens were forced to rely heavily on their AHL depth. Mark Barberio was a key member of that depth and he parlayed that into a very productive 30 game stretch with the Canadiens before injuries prematurely ended his season.
