Montreal vs Tampa series has it all...

Tampa Bay Lightning (3) vs Montreal Canadiens (4)

The 2014 first round series between the Lightning and Canadiens has not failed to disappoint; raw emotion, spectacular goals and controversy, this series has definitely given the fans something to shout about.

The Canadiens have put the Lightning into an almost insurmountable hole after winning a nail biting Game 3 at home in the Bell Centre 3-2 on Sunday night. Only 3 teams have ever come back from a 3-0 deficit, most recently the Philadelphia Flyers in 2010, and the way the Canadiens are playing it is unlikely that the Lightning will make it past the first round.

Rene Bourque scores opener in just 11 secs

Rene Bourque scored just 11 seconds into the 1st period off a chip pass from PK Subban, one of the fastest playoffs goals in history. Tampa levelled the score on the powerplay in the second period and had a controversial goal disallowed after Carey Price was deemed to have been impeded. After some nifty deking PK Subban set up Brendan Gallagher to score the go ahead goal late in the period. Tomas Plekanec extended the lead after 5:43 in the 3rd and the Canadiens clung on to win 3-2 in what for many Canadiens fans must have been a nail-biting experience.

With production from all 4 lines, a resurgent Rene Bourque and in-form PK Subban, is there anything the Lightning can do to resurrect their series?
