Canadiens @ Blue Jackets game recap: Third-period mistakes doom Montreal in Columbus

Coming off the heels of a controversial overtime loss to the New Jersey Devils on Saturday night, the Montreal Canadiens were handed another large dose of bad news. They would be without forward Paul Byron for at least a month, and star winger Jonathan Drouin for about two. What that means is forwards like Charles Hudon and a returning Jesperi Kotkaniemi are going to shoulder larger loads, and first up after learning their situation was a rematch against the Columbus Blue Jackets on Tuesday night.
