While Canadiens fans are focusing on the team’s first round playoff matchup with the Boston Bruins, an ex-Habs is having a legal faceoff of his own.
Former captain Vincent Damphousse was charged yesterday with six counts of assaulting his wife, Allana Henderson. The assaults allegedly took place between 2008 and last month.
Damphousse did not accompany his lawyer to the Montreal courthouse to enter a not-guilty plea.
According to Montreal police, the former Hab is also pressing assault charges against Henderson, who is expected to be arraigned later this month.
