The Tampa Bay Lightning will play the Montreal Canadians on Saturday night in Game 5 of their NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs 2015 series. The Lightning come into the game in complete control of the series despite losing Game 4, and if they can claim another win tonight then they would progress at the expense of Montreal.

Today's big game between the Lightning and the Canadians will start at 7 p.m. ET and takes place from the Bell Centre in Montreal, Quebec. The game can be watched on TV on the NBC Sports network, or online through live stream via the link provided below.

The Canadians managed to extend their postseason another game earlier this week when they managed to claim a 6-2 win in Game 4 to claim their first win in the series and pull things back to 1-3.

However, they will need to overcome the odds in three more win or go home games if they are to put on a thrilling comeback and progress to the next round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Jeff Petry has said, "I think it's definitely in our advantage going back to the Bell Centre. The focus is one more game here and just take it one game at a time. We've just got to win one game and that was our focus [Thursday], and that's got to be our focus moving forward."

Petry added, "I don't think it was hard to stay positive or anything like that. We know we were getting our chances in the first three games and we weren't getting some puck luck, and [Thursday] night I don't think we changed our style of play or anything like that, I think we continued to stay the course and it paid off for us."

However, whether the Canadians will be able to drag out the series another game remains to be seen. To fight all the way back from 0-3 down to claim the series would put them in an elite group of teams; only four teams in Stanley Cup Playoff history have fought back from 0-3 down to win a best of seven series.
