Barron scored a goal on two shots, blocked one shot and delivered two hits in Thursday's 4-1 loss to the Kings.
Barron gave Montreal an early lead when he scored on a wraparound shot, beating a slow-to-react David Rittich. It was the first point of the season for Barron, who showed some offensive proclivity in 2023-24, when he recorded 7-6-13 over 48 games.
