The saying "bad things come in threes" seems to apply to Dach, who has struggled to stay healthy since the start of his professional career.
In the past few hours, we witnessed another scary moment involving Dach, who was hit hard against the boards and fell awkwardly.
It could have ended badly, but fortunately, it was more fear than harm for Dach.
It's incredible. At least, there don't appear to be any lasting consequences, but it's time to start protecting him, as his health will be absolutely crucial and a top priority if Martin St-Louis' squad wants to contend for the playoffs this season.
See the footage:
A nasty fall that, fortunately, doesn't seem to have caused any damage.
However, it's becoming quite frustrating for Kirby Dach, who has already left the ice three times (!) due to pain.
We've had three incidents so far where a player had to leave the ice in pain, and all three involved Kirby Dach.
That's really something.
Take care of yourself, Kirby!
At 23 years old, Dach collected 2 points in 2 games with the Montreal Canadiens last season before suffering a serious injury.
He remains a key offensive piece for the team.
