Montreal Canadiens hold a 3-2 series lead over the Tampa Bay Lightning in their Eastern Conference first-round Stanley Cup Playoffs matchup after a 3-2 Game 5 road win on April 29, fueling trader consensus at 68.5% implied probability for the Habs. Lightning captain Victor Hedman remains sidelined with injury throughout the series, weakening their top-four defense alongside absences like Charle-Edouard D'Astous and Pontus Holmberg, while Montreal's Jakub Dobes has stabilized in net despite a middling .883 save percentage in an even series tied 11-11 in goals before Game 5. Habs' momentum builds with Brendan Gallagher's return and goal in his series debut, Juraj Slafkovsky's Game 1 hat trick, and home-ice advantage for decisive Game 6, offsetting their own losses of Patrik Laine and Dylan Dobson.
