One game after the Tampa Bay Lightning successfully went for the jugular, they missed a follow up chance in Game 4 and the Montreal Canadiens blitzed them for six goals to avoid a sweep.
That wasn’t the first time Tampa has fallen flat after a big win in these playoffs. Their dominant 5-1 win in Game 2 against the Detroit Red Wings in Round 1 was followed up with a 3-0 loss. Two days after their come-from-behind overtime win against the Red Wings in Game 4 the Lightning were flat in a 4-0 shutout.
