Excerpt from Canadiens.com:

The injury bug appears to be contagious. While the Canadiens have been calling up reinforcements from Hamilton, the Bulldogs have been dealing with the loss of a few of their own due to injuries.

Captain Kyle Chipchura, who had begun to find his offensive game over the last few weeks, has been on the shelf since Dec. 10 with a groin injury. He joined center Mathieu Aubin, who has been out of commission since suffering a high ankle sprain 10 days ago. The 22-year-old won’t need surgery on his ankle but it will seven weeks before the Bulldogs can count on his services once again.
