The Canadiens put together yet another solid performance, as they clinched the top spot in the Atlantic Division

The Canadiens headed into south Florida on Monday night to face Reto Berra and the Panthers for the second time in five days. This time, though, the Habs would be backstopped by recent call-up Charlie Lindgren playing in his second career NHL game as Al Montoya continues to heal. Nikita Nesterov would draw in for the injured Shea Weber and Michael McCarron would be replaced on the fourth line by Steve Ott.

The game opened with a great scoring chances for Jeff Petry and Max Pacioretty but Berra was ready.
