Unfortunately, in recent years, Montreal Canadiens forward Jonathan Drouin has been bothered more often than not by injuries.

After a wrist injury last year, we have just learned, courtesy of Maxim Truman of BPM Sports, that Drouin is injured in a new part of his body, his ribs.

The Habs were anticipating a four to six week absence, but we're leaning more towards four than six, according to the host's information.

In 12 games this season, the Quebecer, who is in the last year of his contract, has four assists.
