LIGHTNING vs CANADIENS Watch FREE Live Stream Online & Listen: Round 1 Game 3 Live Coverage 2014 Stanley Cup Playoffs

Tonight at 7:00 p.m. ET, the Tampa Bay Lightning and Montreal Canadiens skate against each other in Game 3 of their first-round Stanley Cup playoff series live from the Bell Centre in Montreal. The game can be live streamed here. Tampa Bay fans can hear all of the action on WFLA 970 while Montreal fans can do the same on TSN 690.

The Canadiens look to take a commanding 3-0 lead when taking home-ice for the first time in the series while the Lightning look to claw their way back into the series after home-ice didn't give them much of an advantage.

Montreal hopes to keep its foot on the gas pedal after winning Game 2 4-1 on Friday.

"It's good that we are up two games, but we fell into that trap against Boston a few years ago, winning two games in their building and then letting off the gas once we got back. We need to make sure that we stick to what worked in the first two games," captain Brian Gionta said via NHL.com. "The Lightning is going to make adjustments, so we need to work to counter them. We need to read what they're going to do and to make necessary changes on the fly." 

Tampa Bay will hope some of its leaders will step up in Game 2. Steven Stamkos leads the team with two goals through the first two games while Alex Killorn has two point of his own off of a goal and an assist.

Lars Eller has three points thus far for the Canadiens off of a goal and two assist while Rene Borque (two goals) and Gionta (one goal, one assist) each have two points along with five other players.

Montreal netminder Carey Price is 2-0 in the series while letting up five goals on 52 shots. With Ben Bishop (upper-body) sidelined, Anders Lindback will man the crease for Tampa Bay after dropping the first two games while letting up eight goals on 67 shots against him.

The Canadiens and Lightning take the ice for Game 3 of their Round 1 Stanley Cup Playoff series tonight in Montreal.
