The Habs were building a the beginnings of a solid first period effort, putting up 8 shot attempts (but only 1 shot on net) before the momentum was cut short by a Torrey Mitchell penalty. The Lightning were unable to take advantage, and midway through the first period the Habs held a 72.27 CF% but were being outshot 3-1.
The Habs got into more penalty trouble, taking 2 more penalties after Torrey Mitchell's, allowing the Lightning to fire off 8 shots in a 3 minute span. By the time the Habs were done putting their 7th league-best penalty-kill to work the shots were 9-1 for the Lightning. The Habs went 11:16 without registering a shot in the midst of their undisciplined play.
Lars Eller was the focus of some attention earlier today around here, and his line was able to draw a penalty late in the period that did not yield a goal, but allowed the Habs to climb back in possession, having fluctuated from almost three-quarters CF% to below 50% then back to 51.35% (19-18 CF) to end the period.
