Lightning F Andrej Palat punches in the puck from a schmozzle in front of the Canadiens net for their 1st goal in elimination Game 4,
but Montreal is in full control 3-1 at home vs Tampa Bay, one period away from advancing to Second Round play in the East.
Canadiens scored in the last minute to win the series and indeed sweep it sounds like, I did not see it. 4-3 over Tampa Bay Lightning.
It’s the Bruins. The Bruins are playing tonight.
I’m not going to post images, did find these funny wallpapers about the Bruins with a Boston Bear or something. This is funny stuff, there’s a series of these apparently.

So much for the Canadiens in "full control" at the 2nd Intermission – the Lightning storm back in the Third period to tie the game at 3,
but Max PacIoretty of Montreal scores his first Playoff goal on the PP in the final minute to send Tampa Bay home with a Series sweep.
Well, the Bs were overdue and you got a mighty fine goalie there, Mears.
Thanks——good game—and on the slim chance :-) that the Bruins don’t win this series I’ll root for The Redwings.

Thanks for the Ping...the Pens have been giving me fits! When all were saying “ha they got it easy w/CBJs in round one” I thought “be careful what you wish for.”
LetsGoPens!!!
I feel exhausted at the end of each one!
Greatest thing ever - playoff hockey!!!
As bad as roller coaster ride has been, I’m so thankful that RootSports is carrying the local feed...and that I haven’t had to listen to the insufferable NBC crews.
Go Steiggy&Errey!
Go Pens!
Let's go Jackets! Bob says "nyet!"
It will be interesting to see how Columbus comes out against the Penguins tonight, and what tactical changes Pittsburgh will have made against a team that is giving them more than they probably expected. And although it may be a hopeless cause, my heart goes with ex-coach Lindy Ruff & Dallas against the likely Cup-contending Ducks.
Canadiens are still the last Canada-based team to win a Stanley Cup.....in 1993.
Go Stars!
If the remaining Series’ continue to trend the way they’re going, we could be looking at a Boston vs. Montreal Conference Semi-final ... And we may see 4 of the Original Six teams participating in the 2nd Round, with some VERY interesting matchups.
Blue Jackets F Johansen taps in a 5-on-3 power-play goal against the Penguins in the second Period of Game 4
in Columbus, narrowing the gap at the Intermission to 3-2 in favor of Pittsburgh.
WTG COLUMBUS, wow!
Pens' G Fleury misplays the puck and Brad Dubinsky for the Blue Jackets buries it into a wide-open net with 23 seconds in regulation
to knot the game at 3, then in the OT yields a long wrist shot from Nick Foligno as Columbus wins 4-3 taking the even Series back to PIT.
