Nikita Kucherov didn't complain about a disallowed goal in the first overtime period. The Tampa Bay forward scored 2:06 into the second overtime - on a play that replays clearly showed was offside - to give the Lightning a 2-1 victory over the Montreal Canadiens on Friday night in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference semifinal series. ''It's really frustrating, losing a game on an offside,'' Montreal coach Michel Therrien said. The Lightning were outshot 44-35 and got some breaks when Montreal's David Desharnais and Max Pacioretty hit posts early on behind shaky goalie Ben Bishop.
