  • Nick Suzuki's late power-play goal secured the Canadiens' 6-3 victory, capitalizing on a critical error by Senators goalie Linus Ullmark.
  • Josh Anderson scored twice, including an empty-net goal, as Montreal rallied from multiple deficits in the third period.
  • Montreal has now won three of their last four games and remains firmly in contention for an Eastern Conference wild-card playoff spot.

  • The Canadiens have dominated the season series against Ottawa, winning all three matchups so far, with one game remaining in April.
