EDGE Analysis
Caufield beat three Blue Jackets to a loose puck in front of Elvis Merzlikins and batted home Montreal's second goal, helping the Canadiens end a five-game road trip on a positive note. There were some down moments during the trip -- lackluster efforts against Boston and LA stand out -- but there were positives to take away. The top three lines produced goals Wednesday, and Caufield found his scoring touch with two tallies on 10 shots over the final three games of the trip. The forward had lit the lamp just once over 12 games before scoring in wins over San Jose on Friday and the Jackets on Wednesday.
