Savard had a short-handed assist, one hit, one blocked shot and two penalty minutes in Thursday's 6-2 loss to the Islanders.

EDGE Analysis

Savard had several wobbly moments, like getting caught flat-footed on the first New York goal and losing the puck at the offensive blue line leading to their fourth, but he made a perfect pass off the boards to set up Nick Suzuki for the Canadiens' first goal. It was the third assist of the season for Savard, who is minus-5 through 12 games.
