The Canadiens did not put together a terrible effort versus the Tampa Bay Lightning in Game Two, however, a few costly mistakes led to the 3-2 overtime win for the Bolts, including a terrible pass attempt by Juraj Slafkovsky. That being said, Slafkovsky was far from the only player who made a mistake on Tuesday night. [Canadiens Highlights: Exciting Overtime Loss]
