The Montreal Canadiens mixed up their lineup Monday night and staved off elimination against the Tampa Bay Lightning.
Trailing 3-0 in the best-of-seven Stanley Cup Final, Canadiens coach Dominique Ducharme added three players, subtracted three and shuffled the top three lines.
The result: The Canadiens scored first for the first time in the series. Josh Anderson, who was moved in the line shuffles, scored twice, including in overtime, for a 3-2 Montreal victory in Game 4.
“We didn’t want to end it tonight in front of our fans, Anderson said. We expected to go to Tampa tomorrow. I think everybody in that locker room did, and we packed our bags this afternoon. We just had that feeling that we were going to win tonight.”
