The lack of scoring in the first period came back to haunt the Canadiens as the incredibly crappy but lucky Lightning took advantage of yet another terrible second period.

There is no way that the Lightning should be up in this game. It should have been a blowout with no looking back after the first period, but here we are after yet another terrible second period.
A two goal deficit isn't insurmountable, but the Habs have start finishing against a damn AHL goaltender.
