Montreal Canadiens forward Kirby Dach likely will miss "significant time" with an injury suffered during Saturday's 3-2 home win against the Chicago Blackhawks, the team announced.

Dach, 22, was hit by Blackhawks defenseman Jarred Tinordi during the first period and sent into the Chicago bench. The Canadiens did not release details of the injury, saying there would be more to report in the coming days.
