Cole Caufield is giving fans strong emotions in this final stretch of the regular season.<\/p>\n

He just had an absolutely outstanding offensive month of March.<\/p>\n

He recorded an impressive total of 12 goals in just 14 games during that span.<\/p>\n

Reaching the prestigious 50-goal mark is now a very realistic target for the Canadiens\u2019 star forward.<\/p>\n

He has proven he is a constant threat every time he sets up in the offensive zone, especially in the slot (both at even strength and, of course, on the power play).<\/p>\n

With 10 goals in his last 7 games, his current production is incredible.<\/p>\n

However, the NHL surprisingly chose to look elsewhere when naming its three stars of the month of March.<\/p>\n

Nikita Kucherov, Erik Karlsson and Pavel Zacha were selected over the Montreal Canadiens\u2019 number 13.<\/p>\n

Bad news for Cole Caufield: he is once again being overlooked by the NHL<\/p>\n

Maintaining a pace close to a goal per game should logically guarantee a spot among the three stars of the month.<\/p>\n

That deserved recognition, and it\u2019s becoming ridiculous.<\/p>\n

Obviously, Cole Caufield won\u2019t lose sleep over it, but it remains frustrating for fans to see that Montreal Canadiens players are not being recognized at their true value.<\/p>\n

And it goes back to the Team USA Olympic selection!<\/p>\n

Caufield must be getting tired of constantly being overlooked.<\/p>\n
