The Canadiens confirmed Monday that 24-year-old Cole Caufield won the Molson Cup for November, awarded to the player with the most three-star selections.
In 13 games in November, Caufield led the team with five goals, eight assists, 13 points, and 34 shots on net, tied with Nick Suzuki for goals and with Mike Matheson for assists. Simply put: his name appeared everywhere on the scoresheet.
He reached this result thanks, among other things, to a streak of seven consecutive games with at least one point, during which he scored two goals and added six assists.
Cole Caufield adds another trophy to his dream season
In total, this season, Caufield already has 26 points, including 14 goals, placing him among the top goal scorers in the National Hockey League and at the top of the Canadiens’ roster after Friday’s game in Las Vegas, where he scored his 14th goal of the campaign.Let’s recall that in October, he had already claimed the Molson Cup thanks to a haul of nine goals in 11 games. Two straight segments with this honor are starting to look like a personal reign over this trophy in Montreal.”With 13 points in 13 games, Cole Caufield is the Molson Cup recipient for November!”
– Montreal Canadiens
Signed for eight seasons at 7.85 million dollars per year, the American is delivering exactly what the management hoped for when they tied him to the club through 2031. The more games go by, the more that amount looks like a bargain for a natural scorer in his twenties.
A special ceremony presentation to highlight his November Molson Cup will take place before Tuesday night’s game against the Ottawa Senators at the Bell Centre. No doubt: when number 13 is introduced, the noise in the stands will rise quickly.
