Lightning Round: at least the Maple Leafs lost

The Tampa Bay Lightning turned the puck over enough for the Montreal Canadiens to beat them last night by a final score of 3-2. Aside from Jonathan Drouin scoring against his old team, the Lightning defenders struggled to move the puck up the ice with the pace of play to beat the Canadiens forecheckers. That was true in the first with Darren Raddysh, and it was true in the third period with Mikhail Sergachev. Their overall pace of play (or lack thereof) allowed the Habs to be more on top of them than they should’ve been.
