Caufield, who is second in the NHL to Nathan MacKinnon<\/a> (46) of the Colorado Avalanche in goals, has seven goals and 12 points during a six-game point streak. His linemates, meanwhile,\u00a0are on seven-game point streaks. Slafkovsky has 10 points (five goals, five assists) during his streak, and Nick Suzuki<\/a>, who assisted on Caufield\u2019s goal, has 12 points (three goals, nine assists).<\/p>\n

The Canadiens are third in the Atlantic Division, five points behind the Tampa Bay Lightning for second place, and two points ahead of the Boston Bruins, who have played one more game.<\/p>\n

\u201c(Dobes) is really dialed right now,\u201d Slafkovsky said. \u201cI really think he knows how important this stretch is and he wants to help the team. He wants to stop as many pucks as he can, and when you have someone like that it makes you more confident with the puck.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Nikolaj Ehlers<\/a> and Jordan Staal<\/a> scored and Frederik Andersen<\/a> made 14 saves for Carolina (45-20-6), which blew an early 2-0 lead and had its three-game winning streak end.<\/p>\n

Carolina is nine points ahead of the Columbus Blue Jackets for first in the Metropolitan\u00a0Division and one point ahead of the Buffalo Sabres for first in the Eastern Conference.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s hard because for the most part we were really good tonight,\u201d Hurricanes coach Rod Brind\u2019Amour said. \u201cWhen you look at the score, you\u2019re like, \u2018What just happened?\u2019 But it wasn\u2019t that kind of game.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Caufield tied it 2-2 at 5:49 of the second period when he put away the rebound of Suzuki\u2019s shot.<\/p>\n

\u201cI like how we played,\u201d Caufield said. \u201cWe just didn\u2019t freak out after going down two.\u201d<\/p>\n

Slafkovsky put the Canadiens up 3-2 at 9:19. Caufield appeared to have scored his second goal of the game, but his deflection of Noah Dobson<\/a>\u2019s shot from the left point struck Slafkovsky on its way up and past Andersen’s glove.<\/p>\n

\u201cI wasn\u2019t sure if it was the (defenseman’s) stick, but (Caufield) had a nice celebration so I didn\u2019t want to ruin it,\u201d Slafkovsky said.<\/p>\n

Demidov made it 4-2 at 13:53 of the third\u00a0period, scoring\u00a0the Canadiens\u2019 fourth straight goal on a breakaway.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Caufield, who is second in the NHL to Nathan MacKinnon (46) of the Colorado Avalanche in goals, has…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":559291,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194292],"tags":[49,48,2338],"class_list":["post-559290","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-montreal","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-montreal"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/559290","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=559290"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/559290\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/559291"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=559290"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=559290"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=559290"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
