The NHL first-round Stanley Cup Playoffs series between the Montreal Canadiens and Tampa Bay Lightning reached a decisive 3-3 tie after six games, with the Lightning securing a 1-0 overtime shutout victory in Game 6 on May 1 behind Andrei Vasilevskiy's 30-save performance, forcing a winner-take-all Game 7 on May 3. This outcome locks in a seven-game series—well over the 5.5 threshold—reflecting trader consensus at 99.6% for Over amid a string of one-goal thrillers, including the Canadiens' 3-2 Game 5 win. The tight head-to-head battles and elite goaltending have extended the best-of-seven matchup, though rare disruptions like a Game 7 cancellation due to injury or league ruling could theoretically impact resolution.
