Carey Price makes 26 saves as Canadiens beat host Vegas 4-1 for 3-2 semifinal series lead

LAS VEGAS — Carey Price made 26 saves to lead Montreal to 4-1 victory over the Vegas Golden Knights on Tuesday night, putting the Canadiens one win away from the Stanley Cup Final.

The Canadiens lead Vegas 3-2 in the their best-of-seven series, with Game 6 scheduled for Bell Centre in Montreal on Thursday.

Montreal’s 11th playoff victory is the franchise’s most in one postseason since the Canadiens won the Cup in 1993, also the last time a Canadian-based team won the title.

Jesperi Kotkaniemi, Eric Staal, Cole Caufield and Nick Suzuki scored for the Canadiens, who have made an NHL-record 34 Stanley Cup Final appearances.
