Bottom Six Minutes: Juraj Slafkovsky looks to be in playoff mode -
Every year, as the calendar slowly turns into the month of April, you start to get some real previews of what the NHL playoffs will look like. Tuesday night was one of those previews, with the Montreal Canadiens taking on a likely first-round foe in the Tampa Bay Lightning. It had all the checking and intensity of a playoff game, as the players knew how important the game could be for the final standings, on top of wanting to set the tone for a potential seven-game series to start between them in a few weeks. They’ll have one more meeting before that could potentially happen, but the Habs took this one to send a message that they’re not the same team Tampa beat back in 2021. Juraj Slafkovsky wasn’t around for that series, and if his performance last night is any indication, he’s ready to be a difference maker if he gets the chance this time. Great work by Juraj Slafkovsky, and this is as easy as they come

Montreal Canadiens Organizational Players of March -
NHL Player of the Month: Cole Caufield Several Canadiens players had incredible performances in March, a month in which the team only lost five times, and four of those were to either the San Jose Sharks or Anaheim Ducks. They played a lot of games of critical importance to the playoff race in the Eastern Conference and won every one of those games save a loss to the Detroit Red Wings. There were three legitimate candidates to claim this honour this time, but the winner is the one who led the league in a few categories. Cole Caufield has made headlines all season long for his timely goal-scoring, and no one scored more than the three game-winners he had in 14 games, tying him with five others. He sat alone atop the even-strength goals like with 10 of his 12 scored in those situations, and overall ended up one goal behind Pavel Zacha for the outright lead while playing two fewer games (and one in which he was too ill to take a regular shift).

Canadiens @ Lightning Top Six Minutes: Montreal claims a professional win in Tampa -
First period This is an encouraging start from Montreal. They’re quickly moving the puck with support to get out of the defensive zone, and have gotten out to a 3-0 shot advantage in the opening couple of minutes. Jayden Struble loses body position and reaches out to give himself a boost to correct that. The referee is 20 feet away to see it and call the holding penalty. Tampa Bay uses the power play to take the lead in shots, but the game remains 0-0. That’s the type of urgency the Canadiens need to adopt. The Lightning are trying a lot of stretch passes. So far they’ve only gone for a couple of icings, but the defence will need to be mindful or players speeding down the ice. Montreal is winning puck battles, including the members of the second line who had a lot of difficulty a couple of nights ago in Raleigh, so that’s another encouraging sign. The Canadiens are playing well, th
