Canadiens forward Kirby Dach is out for four to six weeks with a fractured foot
MONTREAL (AP) — Montreal Canadiens forward Kirby Dach will miss the next four to six weeks because of a fractured foot, the team announced Sunday.
In a corresponding move, the team recalled forward Joshua Roy from its American Hockey League affiliate, the Laval Rocket.
The injury is the latest in a string of them for the Canadiens.
Montreal announced the losses of forward Alex Newhook and defenseman Kaiden Guhle for the long term on Friday after both had surgery.
Newhook underwent a procedure on his right ankle Friday and is expected to miss four months. Guhle had surgery Thursday on a partially torn adductor muscle and is expected to miss eight to 10 weeks.
Dach had five goals and two assists in 15 games this season.
