The Canadiens won the first three games of the series en route to defeating the Senators in six games. In game one, Brian Flynn scored the game-winning goal at 17:17 of the second period, and recorded two assists as the Canadiens won 4–3. Montreal's P. K. Subban was given a five-minute major and a game misconduct for slashing Ottawa's Mark Stone during the second period, resulting in a microfracture of Stone's right wrist, but did not face any further League discipline. Alex Galchenyuk's goal at 3:40 into overtime gave the Canadiens a 3–2 win in game two. Cameron replaced Andrew Hammond with Craig Anderson as his starting goalie for game three, who despite a strong outing, surrendered the tying goal by but Dale Weise with 5:47 left in the third period, who also scored at 3:40 into overtime to give Montreal a 2–1 win. Anderson rebounded in game four, stopping all 28 Montreal shots while Mike Hoffman scored the Senators' only goal to win 1–0. Ottawa also took game five by a score of 5–1 as Anderson stopped 45 of 46 shots, with Bobby Ryan contributing two goals. The Canadiens then eliminated the Senators in game six by a score of 2–0, with goaltender Carey Price registering the shutout stopping all 43 of Ottawa's shots. In the second round, Tampa Bay Lightning defeated the Canadiens in six games. In game one, Nikita Kucherov scored 2:06 into double overtime to give Tampa Bay a 2–1 win. This winning goal was controversial because the Lightning appeared to have been offside on the play, but nothing was called by the linesmen. Earlier at 2:56 of the first overtime period, Kucherov's apparent winning goal was waved off after officials ruled that he pushing Carey Price's pad into the net after the Montreal goalie made the initial save. The Lightning also won game two, 6–2, scoring four power play goals. Montreal's Brandon Prust was then fined $5,000 for his postgame derogatory public comments directed toward referee Brad Watson, which he later apologized for the day afterward. In game three, Tyler Johnson scored with 1.1 seconds left to give Tampa Bay a 2–1 victory. The Canadiens stayed alive in game four, as Max Pacioretty recorded a shorthanded goal and two assists, as Montreal built a 5–0 second-period lead en route to a 6–2 win. Then, in game five, P.A. Parenteau scored with 4:07 left in regulation to give the Canadiens a 2–1 victory. In game six, Ben Bishop stopped 18 of 19 Montreal shots, and Kucherov scored two goals, as Tampa Bay won 4–1 to take the series. 2015 Stanley Cup playoffs Eastern Conference First Round vs. (WC1) Ottawa Senators: Montreal wins 4–2 # Date Visitor Score Home OT Decision Attendance Series Recap 1 April 15 Ottawa 3–4 Montreal Price 21,287 1–0 Recap 2 April 17 Ottawa 2–3 Montreal OT Price 21,287 2–0 Recap 3 April 19 Montreal 2–1 Ottawa OT Price 20,500 3–0 Recap 4 April 22 Montreal 0–1 Ottawa Price 20,500 3–1 Recap 5 April 24 Ottawa 5–1 Montreal Price 21,287 3–2 Recap 6 April 26 Montreal 2–0 Ottawa Price 20,500 4–2 Recap Eastern Conference Second Round vs. (A2) Tampa Bay Lightning: Tampa Bay wins 4–2 # Date Visitor Score Home OT Decision Attendance Series Recap 1 May 1 Tampa Bay 2–1 Montreal 2OT Price 21,287 0–1 Recap 2 May 3 Tampa Bay 6–2 Montreal Price 21,287 0–2 Recap 3 May 6 Montreal 1–2 Tampa Bay Price 19,204 0–3 Recap 4 May 7 Montreal 6–2 Tampa Bay Price 19,204 1–3 Recap 5 May 9 Tampa Bay 1–2 Montreal Price 21,287 2–3 Recap 6 May 12 Montreal 1–4 Tampa Bay Price 19,204 2–4 Recap Legend: #cfc Win 1px solid #cfc #fcc Loss 1px solid #fcc * denotes if needed Player statistics Final2014–2015 Regular Season Stats – Points – Montreal Canadiens – Statistics http://canadiens.nhl.com/club/stats.htm?season=20142015 https://web.archive.org/web/20141015183244/http://canadiens.nhl.com/club/stats.htm?season=20142015 dead October 15, 2014 Montreal Canadiens April 15, 2015 Skaters Regular season Player GP Games played G Goals A Assists Pts Points +/− Plus/minus PIM Penalty minutes Max Pacioretty 80 37 30 67 38 32 Tomas Plekanec Tomáš Plekanec 82 26 34 60 8 46 P.
