The Canadiens have just announced surprise reinforcements coming to the lineup
Good news.
We can officially say "more scare than harm" in the case of the young defenseman Jordan Harris, who is already on his way to returning to Martin St-Louis' lineup. Appreciated reinforcement!
Harris was already a regular at today's practice live from Brossard:
"Jordan Harris practiced with his teammates, wearing a red jersey, suggesting he could receive contact. The 23-year-old defenseman also took part in the morning session (without contact, however), the day before."
- Montreal Canadiens
He's making rapid progress! With his imminent return to play, possibly as soon as the next game, Martin St-Louis will have a big decision to make with Arber Xhekaj. A situation to watch, then!
Harris, 23 years old, has accumulated six points in 31 games this season, with a differential of -5 and 16 penalty minutes.
Xhekaj, 23 years old, has accumulated five points in 24 games this season, with a differential of 0 and 58 penalty minutes.
Speaking of today's Habs practice, let's remember this:
