The Tampa Bay Lightning face a massively important game against the Montreal Canadiens tonight. Either they head back to Tampa with the series tied at two games apiece, or they head back with elimination looming over their heads. The Lightning need to avoid giving the Canadiens unnecessary power plays if they want to walk away with a win, as Montreal has converted on 30.8% of their man advantages in this series. Charle-Edouard D’Astous remains out of the lineup for the Lightning, but Max Crozier will draw in for Declan Carlile. The game will be broadcast on ESPN in the United States. In Canada, it’ll be available on Sportsnet, CBC and TVA Sports. It will also be available on The Spot in the Tampa market.
