Hoffman scored a power-play goal on two shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Blackhawks.

EDGE Analysis

Hoffman gave the Canadiens a 2-1 lead late in the second period, but that was it for their offense. The tally snapped a 13-game goal drought for Hoffman, a stretch that dated back to Halloween due to his absences for an upper-body injury and the COVID-19 protocols. The winger has been unable to give his career a jolt with the Canadiens, as he's at just nine points with 54 shots on net and a minus-14 rating in 21 appearances for one of the league's worst teams.
