This was reported by the daily “Ottawa Sun”. The 20-year-old forward was playing with Canada at the World Junior Hockey Championship when he fell during the quarter-final duel against Switzerland on Wednesday. A contact with Vincent Despont prevented him from playing the following games of the tournament won on Saturday by the maple leaf.
In addition, Dorion specified that Greig will participate in exhibition meetings of the “Sens”, but he will forgo the rookie tournament scheduled for September 15-18 in Buffalo.
A first-round pick, 28th overall, in the 2020 draft, the Albertan had 63 points, including 26 goals, in 39 games with the Brandon Wheat Kings of the Western Junior League in 2021-2022 .
