Players to target: Vladislav Namestnikov, Steven Stamkos, and Nikita Kucherov
The Tampa Bay Lightning's top line has a great matchup against a Montreal Canadiens team that is on the wrong end of a back-to-back set. They should avoid the top line of the Canadiens and instead get the second line, featuring Phillip Danault and Alex Galchenyuk, which allows over 28.7 Scoring Chances Against per 60 minutes.
We know how great the Tampa Bay top line has been at even-strength, and the power-play matchup is good, as well. The Canadiens have the fourth-worst penalty kill in the NHL, while the Lightning have the best power play. This makes the Lightning's top line a scary fade in tournaments.
