The Canadiens finished the regular season with only 234 goals allowed, second only to the Boston Bruins.

Although the Canadiens scored the fewest short-handed goals in the league, with 4, they only allowed 7, good enough for 4th place in the league (tied with the Buffalo Sabres and Edmonton Oilers).
