Keep updated on all the injury news and roster moves from around the NHL with daily Ice Chips.

Montreal Canadiens 

Canadiens head coach Claude Julien told the Montreal Gazette on Monday the team had shut down defenceman Shea Weber indefinitely for the second time this season due to a foot injury.

Weber has not played since facing the Ottawa Senators in  the NHL 100 Classic on Dec. 16. He resumed skating on Feb. 7 after having a walking removed.

Julien said Monday Weber was not "feeling comfortable" in his rehab from the injury, which he played through early in the season.

The Gazette does not expect Weber to suit up again for the Canadiens this season. Julien said Monday Weber would only return once he was 100 per cent.

The 32-year-old has six goals and 16 points in 26 games this season while averaging 25:21 of ice time per contest.

Calgary Flames

Winger Troy Brouwer will play on Tuesday night for the first time since taking a puck to the face on Feb. 8. 

Brouwer sustained a facial fracture on the play and will face the Vegas Golden Knights wearing a full cage.

The 32-year-old has three goals and 15 points in 54 games with the Flames this season.

Centre Tyler Bozak was absent from Tuesday morning's gameday skate, but head coach Mike Babcock said he will play on Tuesday night. Winger Josh Leivo practised in his place on Tuesday between James van Riemsdyk and Connor Brown.
