The Canadiens figure out how to skate together and win close games

Montreal is right now. The club is doing a great job of coming back from behind in recent games. The Canadiens have won 8 of their last 10 contests, including two in a row. The club beat Vancouver by two goals on Monday.

“I’d say we’re learning a little bit,” Caufield added.

The Canadiens have been hot since December 17th. On that day, Montreal was 15th in the Eastern Conference and looked dead. Since then, The Canadiens outscored their opponents and finding the right cohesion on the ice. It’s like a light switch is turned on for Cofield and company.

“I think we’re learning how to come back in games and never get out of it.” Just stop the bleeding when you get a cut. “I think we’ve progressed pretty well,” Coffield added.

Caufield is a winger who has 22 goals in 40 games this season. He has a total of 38 points and has scored in his last four games. That includes four goals in their last four games, including a win against Vancouver.

“I thought it was a big, mature game from our group tonight, and especially big for the fans,” Coffield told NHL.com.

The young winger is closing in on his goal from last season, with about 40 games to go. In the 2023-24 season, Caufield scored 28 goals for the Canadiens. He finished last season with a total of 65 points.

Canadiens fans love what they see from Caufield. The winger is a former first-round pick in the NHL Draft, going 15th overall in the 2019 draft. He started playing for the club during the 2020-21 season.

The Canadiens look for another win when they take on the Washington Capitals on Friday. Montreal now has 41 points on the season and is fifth in the Atlantic Division of the Eastern Conference.
