Storylines: Tyler Seguin will appear in his third straight playoff game. Seguin has three goals and two assists... Martin St. Louis has three goals and five assists in the last five games. St. Louis was his usual determined self on Tampa's second goal in Game 2, driving to the net and causing the puck to deflect off Johnny Boychuk... Milan Lucic was walking with a limp this morning. Lucic is still hobbled from a Seguin shot off the right foot on Monday... Stephen Walkom and Steve Kozari will be the referees. Greg Devorski and Jay Sharrers will be the linesmen.
