There were some major news yesterday concerning the Montreal Canadiens, and I don’t mean Luke Richardson’s three-year extension as an assistant coach.
I mean the news regarding captain Shea Weber’s health. It was announced he had been playing through three injuries, which could be career-ending.
Most of the hockey world was aware of his thumb injury after the Canadiens released a video of the team getting their COVID-19 vaccines, which also showed Weber with a thumb brace.
