In an intense Game 3, the Canadiens overcame the Capitals 6-3, using the energy from on-ice confrontations to boost their performance, cutting the Capitals' series lead to 2-1. Logan Thompson will return as goaltender for the Capitals, while Jakub Dobes is primed to start for the Canadiens due to Sam Montembeault's injury. Notable players like Aliaksei Protas and Arber Xhekaj are also in the mix, creating a potentially competitive Game 4, scheduled for 6:30 pm.
The Canadiens used the chaos and energy to their advantage, defeating the Capitals 6-3 and narrowing the first-seeded Caps' series lead to 2-1.
Montreal will need another huge effort like that to even the series, especially with the dynamic changes in their lineup and the Capitals missing some key players.
