Canadians: defender David Savard on the injured list

The Canadiens have announced that they have listed the defender’s name David Savard on the injured list on Saturday.

The move is retroactive to December 4 as the defender is hampered by an upper-body injury. The Habs had indicated earlier this week that Savard and Sean Monahan should miss between two and three weeks of activities.

The defenseman has been sidelined since Dec. 3 against the Edmonton Oilers. In 24 games this season, the 32-year-old has one goal and seven assists.

The Canadiens will play their next seven games on opposing rinks with a first stop against the Coyotes in Arizona.
