Canadiens’ shot-blocking star Noah Dobson to miss start of playoffs with upper-body injury

Montreal Canadiens defenceman Noah Dobson is hit by the puck while blocking a shot during an April 11, 2026 NHL regular-season game against the visiting Columbus Blue Jackets.

Montreal Canadiens defenceman Noah Dobson will be re-evaluated in two weeks after suffering an upper-body injury in Saturday’s 5-2 loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets, ruling him out for the beginning of the playoffs in a major blow to the blue line.
