Veteran Canadiens defenceman, David Savard, is out indefinitely following an upper-body injury sustained from blocking three shots in less than a minute during a penalty kill. The injury occurred during a 3-1 victory over the Buffalo Sabres. Savard's shot-blocking technique has been noted in this incident. Meanwhile, discussions in the hockey world are also focusing on Jack Hughes' Hart Trophy odds, Joonas Korpisalo's slow start, and Joe Pavelski's potential Hockey Hall of Fame induction.

Good lord. Canadiens Savard loses his stick. Then loses his skate blade blocking Tage shot. One more block and he mighta lost his cup.
David Savard is a warrior. He was so screwed there without a skate blade. Great stop by Allen to get him a change.
David Savard just took a beating blocking two Tage Thompson one-timers.
