Juulsen had been getting set for his first professional season and that will have to wait a little longer. Juulsen will likely report to the Laval Rocket once he recovers.
He was a long-shot to make the Habs roster out of training camp, but he was in the right defence conversation alongside Brett Lernout once Jordie Benn started practicing on the left side.
