I never would have thought I’d see him again so soon. He didn’t think so either. Before the game, in an interview with Patrick Friolet (RDS), the defenseman said he didn’t know when he would return, but never thought it would be so soon.
“We didn’t know when I was going to come back, but we never thought it would be this soon. I tip my hat to the medical team, they’ve been incredible!”

The team’s best defensive defenseman hasn’t played since January 28 against the Winnipeg Jets. That evening, the 4-1 loss was even more bitter than usual: not only did Montreal lose its third game in a row, but it also lost one of its pillars on the blue line.
Fortunately, we are in late March and in a frantic race for the last playoff spot, Martin St-Louis’ team needs its defenseman.

The player with a plus-2 record isn’t recognized for his offensive support anyway. He remains highly important to his team.
Overtime
– Good question.

– He’s playing excellent hockey.
Jared Davidson’s fight brought a lot of energy to the Place Bell. Right after, two powerplay goals from the Rocket to make it 3-0.
Whether we like it or not, a well-timed fight can bring positive emotion to a team. https://t.co/HHrGkruJHQ
