Canadiens vs. Lightning Game 3 Top Six Minutes: Pushed to the brink

The first Stanley Cup Final game in Montreal since 1993. And the first ever at the Bell Centre. Should be an entertaining night.

1st period

  • That’s a very large 3.500-fan crowd. It’s loud in the building to start.
  • And now pretty quiet as the Lightning get on the board first. It’s another goal from the defence.
  • Things go from bad to more bad as Eric Staal flips the puck out to put the Lightning’s power play on the ice.
  • And now it’s worse as Victor Hedman beats Carey Price to make it 2-0
  • Dominique Ducharme uses his timeout, so there will be no challenged from him tonight, except the one he just gave his team.
