In Hoffman's case, the Habs said only that he has a lower-body injury. No timetable was announced.
Drouin has been limited to four assists in 12 games this season. Hoffman has five goals and three assists in 16 games.
The Habs return to action on Tuesday when the San Jose Sharks visit the Bell Centre. The Habs have won three of their last four games.
