Kaiden Guhle Undergoes Adductor Surgery, Sidelined 8-10 Weeks

Montreal Canadiens defenseman Kaiden Guhle, 23, underwent adductor muscle surgery on Thursday, November 13, 2025, and is expected to miss 8-10 weeks, with an estimated return around January 8, 2026. The announcement was made by the Canadiens on Friday. His adductor was partially torn on October 16 in Nashville, but the injury did not heal properly, necessitating surgery almost four weeks later. Before the surgery, Guhle had recorded one goal, one assist, five blocked shots, and 16 hits across five games this season. He signed a six-year, $33.3 million contract with the Canadiens in July 2024.
