All three games in this series have been decided in OT.
Tampa Bay has been led offensively by Brandon Hagel and Jake Guentzel, but inconsistent defense and missed chances have hurt them despite strong goaltending from Andrei Vasilevskiy.
Montreal has capitalized on key moments and benefited from timely contributions — like Lane Hutson’s overtime strike in Game 3 — across the lineup.
The Bolts’ path in Game 4 will likely depend on tightening defensive breakdowns and getting more consistent secondary scoring to support Vasilevskiy.
