Montreal Canadiens prospects won’t be able to suit up for the Laval Rocket until February.

The Montreal Canadiens top affiliate, the Laval Rocket, have not played a game since the middle of March. It sounds like it could be close to a full year before they set foot on the ice again.

When the league first pushed back its start date for the season that should have begun by now, they were saying they were targeting December 1 to drop the puck on next season.
