Cole Caufield's two goals, including the decisive one, propelled the Montreal Canadiens to a 7-5 victory over the Buffalo Sabres, snapping their six-game losing streak.

The win halted the Sabres' three-game winning run, with Rasmus Dahlin and Dylan Cozens contributing for Buffalo. However, the game saw key players Tage Thompson and Mattias Samuelsson exit due to injuries.

Nick Suzuki's performance marked a milestone, reaching 300 career points in just 389 games, making it one of the quickest in Canadiens' history.
