In recent hockey updates, Montreal Canadiens' David Savard has been credited with the team's second goal, marking his fourth of the season, which surpasses his total from the previous season. Meanwhile, Juraj Slafkovsky has been demonstrating his powerful shot, coming close to scoring several times. Slafkovsky scored his fifth goal of the season and his second on the power play. During a game against the Colorado Avalanche, the teams ended the first period tied 1-1 with shots 16-15 in favor of the Canadiens. Cole Caufield then scored a 'ridiculous power play snipe', putting the Canadiens ahead 3-2 with 18:08 left in the third period, and taking the team lead with 13 goals. However, the Avalanche managed to tie the game 3-3 with a goal from Devon Toews with 10:23 left in the third period. Caufield's goal was his fifth in the last nine games.

#Habs Juraj Slafkovsky ripping one-timers and coming close to scoring a couple of times with goalie on bench for extra attacker. He needs to do that much more often. He can really let them rip. #HabsIO
#Habs second goal has been changed to David Savard instead of Juraj Slafkovsky. Fourth goal of season for Savard, which is one more than he had in 62 games last season #HabsIO
