EDGE Analysis
Caufield has a goal in each of his last five games. He became the fifth Montreal player in the last 50 years to have a five-game goal streak at age 23 or younger.

Caufield scored a power-play goal and had three shots on net over 19:29 of ice time in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
Caufield, fighting for position at the corner of the net, received a pass from Nick Suzuki and immediately backhanded the puck past Anthony Stolarz. That spot around the net is where head coach Martin St. Louis said in mid-December that Caufield needed to be when the forward was mired in a goal slump. He's scored two goals since, both coming from in and around the crease area. Caufield has nine goals (three on the power play) and 25 points over 35 games.

Caufield had an assist, two shots on net and one block over 13:33 of ice time in Friday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
A rebound of a Caufield shot landed on the stick of Nick Suzuki, who potted Montreal's fourth goal midway through the third period. It was the fourth consecutive game with a point for Caufield. The young forward missed a few shifts during the second period while in the dressing room, but it did not appear to be an injury-related issue. While his goal scoring is off this season, Caufield's contributed 16 assists through 33 games, which is four shy of his career-high 20 helpers from the 2021-22 campaign.
