A few minutes ago, Kent Hughes and Kirby Dach held a press conference following the signing of the young center's contract. The CH general manager took the opportunity to confirm what everyone already knew: Carey Price will be placed on the long-term injured list starting today. <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/MAGodin/status/1567543703979393025?t=t1mentYd1jYb1aTwHgt50A&s=19'> </a></blockquote></div> Hughes did have some very good news, however, as forward Paul Byron will be ready, or very close to being ready, for the start of the season. <div align='center'><blockquote class='twitter-tweet' data-lang='en'><a href='https://twitter.com/raphdoucet/status/1567545458490212354?t=jV10Nw_zzbO_BdjzIXvZ3A&s=19'> </a></blockquote></div> The small forward will finally be able to start a healthy season, as he is in the last year of his contract.
