Canadiens' David Savard: Not traveling Friday
Savard (upper body) will not be with the Canadiens when they travel to Washington on Friday, Eric Engels of Sportsnet reports.
Savard will be shelved for his fourth consecutive contest due to his lingering upper-body issue. Prior to getting hurt, the blueliner was offering decent offensive production with five points in his last seven outings. The veteran hasn't reached the 30-point threshold since 2014-15 when he was with Columbus and is well behind the pace required to do so this year even once he returns to full health.
