Canadiens' Paul Byron: Hoping to be ready for camp

Byron (shoulder) is expected to be ready for the beginning of training camp, per Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports.

Byron -- who underwent shoulder surgery during the offseason -- was expected to be sidelined for six months, which wouldn't have him available for any of training camp. It's possible the club opts to simply hold him out of preseason games if there are concerns regarding his shoulder.
