Canadiens Top Blue Jackets 3-1 In Low-Drama Finish

Montreal takes the result here, and the 3-1 final says this was the kind of game where the better details mattered more than the noise. The Canadiens handled the Blue Jackets without making a federal case out of it, which is often how these mid-season style wins quietly add up. For Montreal, a clean finish like this can matter just as much as a flashy one when the standings start getting tight.
