Montreal Canadiens send Charles Hudon to the AHL

After sending down Mark Barberio earlier today, the Montreal Canadiens have also assigned Charles Hudon to the American Hockey League.

Les Canadiens ont cédé aujourd'hui l’attaquant Charles Hudon aux IceCaps / Canadiens assigned forward Charles Hudon to St. John's today.

Hudon, who was injured on November 25 with a cracked sternum has been skating with Nathan Beaulieu after not going with the team on their road trip. The injury happened right before the team left for Detroit.

With the injuries happening around the team, it wouldn’t surprise me that Hudon is being sent down to play some games in the AHL before coming back up, unless the injuries to Alex Galchenyuk and David Desharnais are not as serious as first feared.
