NHL Playoffs Tracker: Series Results, Top Scorers, May 4 Schedule

The force guided the Montreal Canadiens during Sunday's NHL playoff action.

Despite recording just nine shots on net, they scored one goal that bounced off Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman J.J. Moser and another that happened when Alex Newhook batted the puck out of mid-air and off Andrei Vasilevskiy's back.

The Canadiens were the last team to advance to the second round, which continued Sunday as well when the Colorado Avalanche and Minnesota Wild took part in a scoring festival.
