Securing points is a necessity at this time of year, and the Nashville Predators fell nine seconds short.
After a turnover at the blue line, Montreal Canadiens forward Paul Byron raced to a breakaway, and potted the game-winner to spoil P.K. Subban's homecoming.
The win improved the Habs to 5-2-0 under Claude Julien, but was remarkably their first regulation victory since Jan. 31.
