Canadiens vs Lightning Top Six Minutes: Habs Bring the Hate

• Emelin makes his return to the lineup with Beaulieu out with the flu.
• Great pace to start. Montreal’s tired of losing to Tampa.
• Flynn just ate Morrow’s stick.
• Headed off to the dressing room a little too quickly. Hate seeing that.
• Camera panned away from the scene. Four minute PP worth of blood.
• Good thing Bergevin traded for all that fourth line depth.
• Malholtra might be back in the lineup sooner than we thought.
• Bishopc vc vc vc vc vc vc v (That was my cat).
• Bishop absolutely robbed Alex Galchenyuk. Nothin’ but glove.
• Habs couldn’t convert a single goal on the 4 minute PowerKill™.
• Okay Tampa scored but, did that fan have a DOG in the arena?
• You can bring your dog to the game in Tampa? Awesome.
• So that Tampa goal. Markov tried to block it but it slipped through.
• Price didn’t have a chance. Redirected, five hole.
• Emelin trips over the blueline. (Again?)
• Birthday beats for Prust. Drops ’em with Angelidis. (Who?)
• Galchenyuk tenacious in the crease.
• WHAT JUST HAPPENED.
• That nearly as disturbing as last night’s episode of The Walking Dead.
• Pacioretty thought Stamkos was one of his own defensemen. IF ONLY.
• 2-0 Tampa. I can’t even.
• Fearless Prediction: Montreal wins this game.
• Pretty sure Max Pacioretty just told Price he owes him one.

2nd Period

• Wish I was the fly on the wall in the Habs dressing room.
• Eller shoots hard and then lays the body along the boards.
• He’s just getting warmed up for the playoffs.
• Flynn isn’t coming back tonight. Not surprised.
• End to end action. Habs playing with fire here.
• What happened to avoiding the run and gun with Tampa?
• Ugh. Haven’t seen Price pulled in awhile. Is it time?
• 3-0. Victor F. Hedman.
• Therrien responds with an angry third line.
• Eller & DSP are thugs in deep.
• This game is one misstep from chaos.
• There it is! Prust just body checked Ben Bishop behind the net.
• Remember this?
• Brendan Gallagher fighting!? Hanging out with Prust too much.
• Gotta give Gally the win there. #homer
• Oh hey. We scored. On a powerplay. No sarcasm.
• JDLFR gets two for hooking Steven Stamkos. Bad timing.
• Habs putting all three forwards in front of Bishop.
• It only took 70 games.
• Go Habs Go chants drowning out the boos in Tampa Bay.
• Fearless Prediction: Pacioretty scores in the third.

3rd Period

• P-A Parenteau! 3-2. Here. We. Go!
• Plekanec working his magic again for the assist.
• Petry just forearm shivered Killorn like a boss.
• Prust fighting Angelidis again. Prust didn’t want anything to do with it.
• Somehow Prust gets an instigator? For getting jumped?
• Pacioretty on a breakaway… Nada.
• Just when you thought Subban was going to make Morrow look silly.
• Gotta give it to the vet. Kept possession and waited for PK to outplay himself.
• Habs PP coming up with seven minutes to play. Deep breaths.
• HOW DID THAT STAY OUT? AHHHH
• Subban may have broken Matt Carle’s skate blade with that shot.
• Did Therrien just ressurect the… EGG line? Desperate times…
• Eller. Eller. Eller. Bad penalty my friend.
• A direct result of Gilbert’s broken stick, no less.
• Habs are going to have to pull Carey Price early here.
• Stamkos gets the empty net.
• This is a tough loss. The Habs pressed hard. They dug deep.
• Too little, too late.
• We’ll meet again, again.
