TAMPA -- Cole Caufield and Juraj Slafkovsky each had a goal and an assist for the Montreal Canadiens, who won their sixth straight game with a 4-1 victory against the Tampa Bay Lightning at Benchmark International Arena on Tuesday.

BOTTOM LINE: The Montreal Canadiens will try to build upon a five-game win streak with a victory against the Tampa Bay Lightning. Tampa Bay is 46-21-6 overall and 13-5-1 against the Atlantic Division. The Lightning have a 16-5-3 record in games their opponents commit more penalties.

Caufield has 10 goals (six assists) in his last 10 games and 47 snipes on the season (80 points). No Canadien has hit the 50-goal mark in 36 years. Stephane Richer last did it in 1989-90. And Caufield is just two goals behind Nathan MacKinnon (49) for the NHL lead. Is a Rocket Richard trophy in his sights? Sure, but the climb is steep.

Jakub Dobeš is a big reason why the Canadiens are hot, but strong goaltending can be influenced by strong play and vice versa.

The Montreal Canadiens are making a playoff push but could be without a key defenseman for the start of the playoffs.
