The Canadiens will be without rookie forward Emil Heineman for 3-4 weeks after he injured his right wrist when struck by a car while walking the streets in Utah on Monday, the day before the Canadiens beat the Utah Hockey Club 5-3.
Before he was injured the 23-year-old Heineman ranked seventh among NHL rookies in scoring with 10-7-17 totals in 41 games and ranked third among rookies with 10 goals.
