In a tightly contested game, the Calgary Flames secured a 1-0 victory over the Montreal Canadiens, propelled by Joel Farabee's lone goal and a stellar performance from goaltender Dustin Wolf. This win elevated the Flames back into a playoff position, solidifying their hold on the second wild-card spot in the Western Conference, just ahead of the idle Vancouver Canucks.

Wolf, who made 26 saves to notch his third shutout of the season, continues to demonstrate his prowess against the Canadiens, improving to 3-0-0 in his career against them. Farabee's goal came in the latter half of the game, marking his 11th of the season since joining the Flames from Philadelphia. On the other hand, Montreal's Cole Caufield had several opportunities but was unable to capitalize, hitting the crossbar and missing a breakaway.
