URGENT - Malaysia Airlines Flight 192 Text Size:ASmall TextAMedium TextALarge TextMONTREAL -- The Montreal Canadiens are one step closer to extending their season. Preview: Penguins at Blue JacketsCenter Tomas Plekanec's early third-period goal stood as the game-winner as the Canadiens took a commanding lead in the Eastern Conference first-round playoff series with a 3-2 victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Sunday night in the Bell Centre. "We've seen many different scenarios in the playoffs and we have to have the same approach for the next game that we've had for the past three games," Montreal defenseman P.K. Subban said of being one win from advancing. "They're a good team. They had a lot of opportunities tonight to score. You've got to give them credit. Left winger Rene Bourque and right winger Brendan Gallagher also scored for the Canadiens. Tampa Bay's goals came from left winger Ondrej Palat and defenseman Matt Carle. Goaltender Carey Price made 27 saves for Montreal, which leads 3-0 in the best-of-seven series. Lightning goalie Anders Lindback stopped 28 shots. The ice was barely dry when Bourque sent the crowd into a frenzy with his third goal in the past two games. Subban sent a bouncing pass out of the Montreal zone to Bourque, waiting just outside the Lightning blue line. The winger fended off Tampa Bay defenseman Victor Hedman before tossing his shot short side on Lindback just 11 seconds in. The goal was four seconds shy of the Canadiens' franchise record for the quickest score to start an NHL playoff game, which was set by Bob Gainey in 1977. "It's always good to score early. You want to score early if you can. Especially with the energy in this building, you want to get one early and give them something else to cheer about," said Subban, who finished with a game-high 28:03 of ice time. "They've been great for us all year and they were great again tonight for us. The quick strike prompted the raucous crowd to get on Tampa's netminder with chants of "LIND-BACK" echoing through the building. Lindback recovered from his rough start to keep his team in the game the rest of the period, making several key saves as a four-minute Lightning penalty expired and then later on back-to-back opportunities by Canadiens left winger Max Pacioretty. The Lightning tied the score at 8:39 of the second period on the power play. Montreal defenseman Josh Gorges was caught off-balance in a battle with right winger Ryan Callahan and wound up tangled with Price when Palat's shot from the slot found the back of the net. Momentum appeared to be swinging in Tampa Bay's favor when it thought it had gone ahead at 15:38 on a Callahan score, but the goal was waved off because of goaltender interference. "I was p----- then and I'm p----- now. That's my opinion," Lightning coach Jon Cooper said. "But," he added, "it's still a tie game. You have to turn the page. Stuff like that happens. While not pleased with the decision, Cooper liked what he saw from his team in the aftermath. "I thought we played hard. I thought we were determined, I thought we played with passion. I thought we responded unreal," he said. "Clearly, that was the best game we've played in this series. I thought (our guys) deserved a better fate tonight. The strong stretch from the Lightning marked a rare time in the series in which the Canadiens did not appear to be in control. "We got off our game plan. We started making mistakes that we hadn't made yet and that was our concern," Plekanec said. Tampa Bay right winger Steven Stamkos left the game late in the period after Montreal defenseman Alexei Emelin accidentally kneed Stamkos in the head as he was falling. He returned for the third period. "It's the playoffs. You don't want to miss a shift. I'm not going to get into specifics (about any injury)," the Lightning captain said. "I didn't see the replay, so I don't know exactly what happened, but I was just happy I could come back and finish. Gallagher restored the Canadiens' lead after a strong effort by Subban, who went from the Tampa Bay blue line around the net before feeding the winger in the left faceoff circle at 18:10. Plekanec put the Canadiens up by two at 5:43 of the third period when he paused before moving in from the edge of the left circle to the dot and then rifled a shot past Lindback. Carle cut the deficit when he his shot from the blue line made it through traffic to the back of the net.
