The Montreal Canadiens have dealt with many injuries this season. Top players like Shea Weber, Brendan Gallagher and Jonathan Drouin all missed some time with injuries. The Habs missed those players when they were out of the lineup, much like they missed Victor Mete and Joel Armia when they were sidelined with injuries.
They may not have missed any of those aforementioned players as much as they missed Paul Byron when he was on the injured reserve.
Byron was of course, acquired via waivers from the Calgary Flames in 2015.
