As we can see from the National Hockey League statistics the Lightning in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final 2021 season proved that they aren't going to easily give up their superiority showing an absolutely ruthless game. As a result — Tampa beat the Canadiens 5: 1 at home to lead the playoffs 1-0. So far, Tampa's advantage is too obvious, that's why we sure that the Canadiens fans already want to forget the whole match as soon as possible. Two Canadiens' players fell down unexpectedly in the first minutes, and one of Carey Price's shots hit the Canadian goalkeeper right in the neck. In the third period, Tampa was ruthless. The hosts won it 3: 0, and Nikita Kucherov scored two more goals. Sure Ben Chiaro tried to take the puck away from the goal with his hand, but as we can see on statistics that didn't work. It should be noted that Kucherov became the first player who scored 30 points in the current Stanley Cup and finished seventh in the National Hockey League points in the playoffs (check the NHL player stats).
