Evans scored twice, including once while shorthanded, and added an assist and a plus-4 rating in Friday's 4-1 win over the Blackhawks.
Evans opened the season scoreless over nine outings before breaking the slump Friday. The 30-year-old forward continues to center the Canadiens' fourth line and sees mostly defensive assignments, making offense a secondary factor in his game. He had 24 points over 68 regular-season games last year. Evans has added nine shots on net, eight hits, seven blocked shots and a minus-1 rating through 10 appearances this season.

Evans scored a shorthanded goal, dished an assist and added 12 PIM in Saturday's 8-3 loss to the Sabres in Game 6.
Evans made his presence felt in the first period, though he wasn't able to put in a full-game performance in this lopsided loss. He's earned two goals and five assists during his five-game point streak. For the postseason, he's at eight points, 17 shots on net, 28 hits, 12 blocked shots, 20 PIM and a plus-8 rating over 13 appearances in a middle-six role.

Evans scored a goal in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Sabres in Game 5.
Evans is on a four-game point streak (one goal, four assists). This was his first tally of the postseason, and it stood as the game-winner to give the Canadiens a 3-2 series lead. Evans has six points, 16 shots on net, 27 hits, 11 blocked shots, eight PIM and a plus-7 rating through 12 playoff contests while filling a middle-six role.

Evans picked up two assists in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Sabres in Game 3.
Both helpers came on tallies by Alex Newhook, one late in the first period and one an empty-netter late in the third. Evans has collected three assists in the last two games on the heels of a six-game point drought, but the 29-year-old is still looking for his first goal of the playoffs. He produced 12 goals and 12 assists in 68 regular-season contests.

Evans scored a goal Tuesday in a 4-2 loss to the Flyers.
Evans scored on a rebound with 11 seconds left in the second to make the score 3-2, but the Habs were unable to carry that momentum forward and into the third period. The goal was Evans' first in 12 games (two assists). Montreal will travel to Tampa Bay to start their first-round matchup Saturday. Evans is a bottom-six forward who may see time in the press box given the strength of the lineup.

Evans tallied an empty-net goal and placed two shots on net in Tuesday's 5-2 win over Carolina.
Evans' past two goals have been empty-netters. Overall, the 29-year-old winger is up to 11 goals, 21 points, 67 shots on net, 73 hits and 38 blocked shots across 56 games this season. Tuesday's tally was his first since the end of his six-game point streak, and it ended his five-game point drought.
