What happened: Cole Caufield scored his 40th goal of the season on a tip-in during overtime to give the Montreal Canadiens a victory over the Boston Bruins in Brendan Gallagher's 900th game. The NHL highlighted the feat with a 40-second compilation of his best goals. It is the first 40-goal season for a Habs skater since Vincent Damphousse in 1993-94.

Why it matters: The historical drought underscores the significance for franchise fans. With games remaining, it impacts futures on Habs postseason odds.

What to watch: Watch Canadiens' next games for playoff positioning; Caufield's push toward 45 goals.
