Canadiens defenseman Jayden Struble, who suffered a lower-body injury before the first game of the season a week ago, is close to returning to play.
That’s why the Montreal organization still hasn’t recalled a Laval Rocket defenseman after demoting attacker Alex Barré-Boulet last Sunday.

At least that’s what Renaud Lavoie explained during his lecture on Tuesday examination has JiC.
“Jayden knocks on the door. “It is clear, clear and clear that this young man will play this week,” said the TVA Sports hockey reporter.
“I watched his training, he was moving much better than what we showed you last week,” he also mentioned. The injury that seemed to be bothering him appears to have recovered.”
The 23-year-old American only has 56 games under his belt in the NHL, but his return could still stabilize the team’s defense, which has repeatedly made mistakes and questionable decisions since the start of the season.
“We gave him the time he needed to get back into shape and now, above all, it is time to see him again in this training session,” commented Renaud. He is not a savior, but he is someone who is able to do a very honest job and be very good on defense. He had an excellent camp with the Canadiens.”
