The victory, coupled with Columbus' loss to Boston, moved the Canadiens (43-29-8, 94 points) into a tie with the Blue Jackets for the final wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference.

Three stars Some thought he was petering out as an elite hockey player in the NHL. Few expected the type of season Toews is having.
