Clues Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 LIGHTNING (46-23-7) AT CANADIENS (47-21-8) TV: SUN, RDS, SNE Season series: The Tampa Bay Lightning are 4-0-0 against the Montreal Canadiens, including a 4-2 win at Amalie Arena on March 16. Lightning captain Steven Stamkos has five goals and six points. Canadiens forward Tomas Plekanec has a goal and two assists. Lightning team scope: Tampa Bay, which leads the NHL with 242 goals, was shut out for the first time this season Saturday. Adding injuries to insult, the Lightning were down two players by the end of their 4-0 loss at the Detroit Red Wings. Defenseman Jason Garrison sustained an upper-body injury on a hit by Detroit forward Justin Abdelkader, and forward Cedric Paquette injured his left leg when he crashed into the goal post while trying to prevent the Red Wings' empty-net goal. Lightning general manager Steve Yzerman told the Tampa Bay Times that Garrison is being evaluated by doctors in Tampa and will not make the trip and Paquette is day-to-day. Defenseman Victor Hedman has six points in Tampa Bay's four games against the Canadiens, who lead the Atlantic Division with 102 points, three ahead of the second-place Lightning. Canadiens team scope: Goalie Carey Price was not among the 12 players who took the ice for practice on Sunday. Price was upended in a collision with Canadiens defenseman P.K. Subban late in the third period of a 3-2 overtime win against the Florida Panthers on Saturday. Price did not speak to reporters following the game, but coach Michel Therrien said Saturday that he had no concerns about Price. Defenseman Jeff Petry didn't see the collision and got a bit of a jolt when he saw Price lying on the ice. "You kind of hold your breath but he finished the game and I think he should be ready for [Monday]," Petry said. Montreal, which clinched a berth in the Stanley Cup Playoffs on Saturday, has an opportunity to distance itself from Tampa Bay in the race for the Atlantic Division title. "You always want to play the best, and we feel like at this point of the year it's the type of game we want to be in," defenseman Nathan Beaulieu said after practice Sunday. "It's going to be a playoff-style of game and they're playing good hockey and so are we, so it should be a fun one and we're excited for it."

Guest archey Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 I heard that examinations for Habs fans will take place at the usual place and times. Bandwagon jumpers should be prepared for the usual questions... And I didn't need a Ouija board to tell me I don't know half the answers myself. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vegasrick Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 I know that the regular season is out the window once the playoffs begin, but I think this is a very important game that will show whether the Habs are ready for all opponents, or will just fold against the "wrong" team.

vegasrick Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 I thought the power play looked interestingly more creative last game, and the results were exceptional. Perhaps they have turned the corner. Of course, it probably won't matter with these refs and these "squeaky-clean" players from Tampa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vegasrick Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 We are still the lowest-scoring team in playoff contention right now. And Ben Bishop is in goal. Boys Better Beat Ben Bishop Bigtime, Baby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
