Hate to jynx things here, but the Montreal Canadiens injury bug is back. What looks to be the almost completed roster took part in practice Monday afternoon ahead of their season opener against the Toronto Maple Leafs. However, both Jonathan Drouin and Jacob de La Rose sat out as they were given therapy days.
The Habs announced an update revolving around the latter of the two in that de La Rose will not be making the trip to Toronto. According to the public relations account, a cardiac epsiode is preventing the 23-year-old from being cleared by the team’s medical staff forcing him to remain in Montreal for further evaluation.
