Although the Canadiens are about in the same dissappointing boat as the Lightning this season, being able to fight back from 3-1 down has got to feel good for the Bolts. They have come out of the Christmas break with two home wins, and hopefully the momentum is beginning to build in the locker room.
Steven Stamkos is back on a scoring hotstreak, and he netted his 23rd of the year versus the Habs to open the scoring. Montreal would go on to score 3 straight, but the Bolts got back into the game with JT Wyman's first NHL goal and Marc-Andre Bergeron's 4th of the year. Vinny Lecavalier put the Lightning back on top about halfway through the third period, and Mathieu Garon's great play kept the Canadiens out of the net despite a massive flurry late.
The Lightning look to gain two more points against the Hurricanes on New Year's Eve.
