MONTREAL – Montreal Canadiens forward Kirby Dach will miss the next four to six weeks due to a fractured foot, the team announced Sunday.

In a corresponding move, the team recalled forward Joshua Roy from its American Hockey League affiliate, the Laval Rocket.

The injury is the latest in a string of them for the Canadiens.

Montreal announced the losses of forward Alex Newhook and defenceman Kaiden Guhle for the long term on Friday after both went through surgery.

Newhook underwent a procedure on his right ankle Friday and is expected to miss four months. Guhle underwent surgery Thursday on a partially torn adductor muscle and is expected to miss eight to 10 weeks.

Dach had five goals and two assists in 15 games this season.
