Canadiens notebook: Expect Suzuki line to respond, possible changes for Game 3 The Bell Centre’s opening up with the Canadiens tied 1-1 in their series with the Tampa Bay Lightning, and matchups shift in coach Martin St. Louis’ favour.

On Suzuki line, Dach, Kapanen, Texier, Gallagher, Veleno, the Lightning, and Josh Anderson 💰👇🏻

Uh, I think I really like margaritas, craft beer, Single Malt Scotch, and Oxford commas.

S'what I mean. He's looked disengaged since his last injury return.

Habs tripped over their own dicks in OT and Dach gets the blame? Fuck off. Yes, he made a mistake and has been far from stellar, but to pin the loss on him when the Habs didn't have a single SOG in over 11mins in OT. Ridiculous.

FWIW - he should not play in game 3.

Cowan: Tripped up by mistakes, it's time for Canadiens to make lineup changes Habs should switch out Kirby Dach and Alexandre Texier for Joe Veleno and Brendan Gallagher in Game 3 against Lightning.

My column on lineup changes Canadiens head coach Martin St. Louis should make for Game 3 vs. Tampa Friday night at Bell Centre after a couple of big mistakes proved very costly in 3-2 OT loss in Game 2 that handed the series momentum to Lightning #Habs: montrealgazette.com/sports/hocke...

Not an issue if you're not wearing pants.

Also OT in an elimination game.

Happy Earth Day!

You know it.

You just know there's "fans" that would find something to be critical about 2 minutes after winning the Cup in a sweep. Tune 'em out, Brother!

Especially Youppi!

Gah!

Young Canadiens served lesson by savvy Lightning in series-tying loss Game 2 was a reminder that one of these teams is the youngest participating in these Stanley Cup Playoffs, and the other is the Lightning. Eric Engels has more on how the Canadiens' lack of experienc...

Losing sucks. After a flat performance in OT, the #Habs head back to MTL with a split.

Nick Suzuki feels his line must do more. The Canadiens can make that happen (Gift Article) The Canadiens captain has lost his matchup with Anthony Cirellu through two games, but things could change in Montreal.

The Canadiens head home with a 1-1 split. Mission accomplished, in a way. But the captain does not feel that way.

Nick Suzuki and his linemates have been outscored 3-0 at 5v5. At home, Martin St. Louis will have the power to help change that.

My only concern is how badly they shat the bed in OT. That was 11+ minutes of watching the 21-22 Habs. Whatever, they'll adjust.

I've always liked Dach & felt, when engaged, he is a terrific player. He's not engaged enough, though. Right now he's playing for a contract (his career?) & seems completely disinterested. I also wonder just how much of a mental toll his injury history is taking on him.

It's possible.

Call of the Wilde: Canadiens finish Game 2 with 3-2 OT loss against Tampa Bay to even the series - Montreal | Globalnews.ca The Lightning knew they absolutely had to have this one, and they played like it.

The Canadiens lose momentum in falling to the Lightning in overtime.

Despite the loss, the Wilde Cards is the clear winds of change for the two teams.

Call up Normand Baron to go after Doucherov in game 3.

The split is good. The total lack of anything resembling offense in the OT is not so good.
