Montreal Canadiens lead the Eastern Conference first-round Stanley Cup Playoff series 2-1 over Tampa Bay Lightning after Lane Hutson's overtime goal clinched a 3-2 Game 3 win on April 24 at Bell Centre, shifting trader consensus toward Habs momentum heading into Game 4 there on April 26. Habs dominated regular-season matchups 2-1-1, fueled by Juraj Slafkovsky's seven points (4G-3A) versus Tampa, while Cole Caufield's 50-goal campaign provides elite scoring punch alongside Nick Suzuki. Physical series features Lightning's greasy, intimidation tactics countered by Montreal's toughness from Josh Anderson and Arber Xhekaj; Samuel Montembeault's strong goaltending bolsters home-ice edge, with minimal injury disruptions—Habs without Kaiden Guhle and Patrik Laine, but core healthy. Bell Centre crowd and rest advantage could widen the gap.
