Canadiens' Ivan Demidov: Facing multi-week absence

Rotowire• ·

The Canadiens announced Tuesday that Demidov will be out for 2-4 weeks due to a lower-body injury.

Analysis:

Demidov didn't participate in Monday's practice session due to what the team labeled a therapy day, and his injury will ultimately force him to miss multiple weeks. Across his first two regular-season appearances this year, he recorded a goal, an assist, three hits and two PIM while averaging 15:37 of ice time.
