KEY GAME INFORMATION
TAMPA BAY: LAST SEASON: 46-27-9, 101 points. Swept in first round of playoffs by Montreal.
COACH: Jon Cooper, second full season with Lighting, 51-35-12.
ADDED: F Brian Boyle, F Brenden Morrow, D Anton Stralman, D Jason Garrison, G Evgeni Nabokov, F Jonathan Drouin.
LOST: G Anders Lindback, F Ryan Malone, F Teddy Purcell, F Nate Thompson, D Sami Salo.
PLAYER TO WATCH: Ondrej Palat. One of the NHL's top rookies last season. With Steven Stamkos missing a significant portion of the year and Martin St. Louis departing in a late-season trade, Palat finished with team-leading 50 points, including 23 goals. Third among league rookies in goals and second in points, he led all rookies with 44 points after Jan. 1.
OUTLOOK: With Bishop healthy again after missing the playoffs with a dislocated elbow, many expect the Lightning to prosper in the relatively weak Eastern Conference and make a deep run in the playoffs. Stamkos has scored more goals (210) than any player in the league since the start of the 2009-10 season and Bishop is coming off a season in which he set franchise season records for wins (37), save percentage (.924) and goals-against average (2.23).
MONTREAL: LAST SEASON: 46-28-8, 100 points; lost to New York Rangers in Eastern Conference final.
COACH: Michel Therrien, seventh season with Canadiens, 287-224-23-58.
ADDED: D Tom Gilbert, C Manny Malhotra, RW P.A. Parenteau, RW Jiri Sekac.
LOST: C Daniel Briere, RW Brian Gionta, D Josh Gorges, LW Thomas Vanek.
PLAYER TO WATCH: P.K. Subban: The 43rd overall pick in the 2007 draft solidified his status as a top-five defenseman in the NHL following a 2013-14 regular season in which he recorded 53 points (10 goals, 43 assists) in 82 games, and added another 11 (five goals and six assists) in 17 playoff games. And he isn't going anywhere. The Canadiens and Subban agreed to an eight-year, $72 million contract in the offseason.
OUTLOOK: The Canadiens earned the ire of playoff foes Boston and New York for on-ice antics and their off-ice loquaciousness. But teams don't dislike opponents who aren't good. The Canadiens are just that, and should find themselves in the playoffs come April.

*Lightning-Canadiens Preview* =============================

By ALAN FERGUSON STATS Writer

Tampa Bay (46-23-7) at Montreal (47-21-8), 7:30 p.m. EDT

The Tampa Bay Lightning have dominated Montreal this season but currently trail the Canadiens by three points in the Atlantic Division.

The Lightning look to narrow that gap by recording their first season sweep of one of the league's most storied franchises Monday night.

Tampa Bay (46-23-7) has outscored Montreal 16-5 in four matchups in 2014-15 and built an early three-goal cushion in a 4-2 home win March 16. Ben Bishop stopped 32 shots while outdueling the Canadiens' Carey Price for the fourth straight time, but has allowed six goals on 33 shots in the Lightning's back-to-back losses.

Even letting up one goal would have been too many Saturday, when Detroit scored three times over a 3:54 span in the second period before later adding an empty netter in a 4-0 win. Tampa Bay was shut out for the first time all season and went 0 for 6 on the power play.

The Lightning also suffered a pair of injuries. Defenseman Jason Garrison left with an upper-body in the first period and Cedric Paquette appeared to injure his left leg in the third. The status of both players is uncertain as Tampa Bay tries to avoid a season-high third consecutive defeat.

"It's frustrating that we've dropped a couple of late," coach Jon Cooper said. "It's 82 games. It's going to happen sometimes. Do you want to see it happening now? No. Do you want to see our guys going down the way they are? No. We've just got to weather through it."

Montreal (47-21-8) clinched a playoff berth and avoided a third consecutive defeat Saturday with a 3-2 overtime victory against Florida. Max Pacioretty provided the winning goal, and Price kept the Panthers off the scoreboard in the final 29:48 in the Canadiens' third straight home victory.

Montreal came close to getting swept by Tampa Bay last season, taking one shootout win in four matchups. The Canadiens then eliminated the Lightning in four games in the opening round of the playoffs while Bishop sat out due to an upper-body injury.

The Lightning bring in the league's most prolific offense at 3.18 goals per game while Price leads a Montreal club that allows an NHL-low average of 2.18 goals. Tampa Bay, though, has scored 12 on Price, owner of the NHL's best goals-against average at 1.88 and a career-best 41 wins.

His 3.29 GAA against the Lightning this season is his second-worst versus any opponent behind his 4.54 in two games versus Chicago.

"You always want to play the best. We feel that at this point of the year, this is the type of game we want to be in," Canadiens defenseman Nathan Beaulieu said. "It's going to be a playoff-style game. They're playing good hockey and so are we. It should be a fun one. We're excited for it."

Lightning star Steven Stamkos has five goals and one assist in this season's series, but the 40-goal scorer is mired in his longest drought at four games.
