Scratched Sunday Lehkonen was a healthy scratch for Sunday's game against the Senators.

Impact Tomas Tatar was a healthy scratch, opening up a spot on the third line for Lehkonen. He took the spot rather than Corey Perry, who was active in place of Tatar. Perry had filled in on the third line earlier this season when Joel Armia battled a concussion. Lehkonen is now pointless over the last six games and has hit the scoresheet once in the last 10.

Impact Lehkonen picked up a helper on Jake Evans' second-period tally that gave the Canadiens a 5-2 lead. Through five games, Lehkonen has a goal, an assist, eight hits and five shots on goal in a fourth-line role. His line with Evans and Paul Byron (foot) has been a solid trio for the Canadiens, but Lehkonen may have to adjust to a new linemate if Byron is unavailable for Saturday's rubber match against the Canucks.

On scoresheet with shortie Lehkonen scored a shorthanded goal in Monday's 3-1 win over the Oilers.
Impact Lehkonen's offensive chances have been limited in a fourth-line role to begin the year. His goal Monday, his first point of the year, was a momentum killer for the Oilers, as it stretched the Canadiens' lead to 3-0. Lehkonen has contributed with six hits, three shots on goal and three blocked shots through three contests, but it's tough for fantasy managers to trust him while he's seeing such minimal usage.

Opens on fourth line Lehkonen will start the season at right wing on the fourth line, Stu Cowan of the Montreal Gazette reports.
Impact Lehkonen is a victim of the added depth Montreal has this year. The fifth-year forward was a staple on the third line last season, but he now finds himself with Paul Byron and Jake Evans on the final trio. The 25-year-old winger scored 13 goals and improved his shooting percentage to 9.3, Lehkonen's best since his rookie campaign in 2016-17 when the Finn scored 18 goals with an 11.4 shooting percentage.

Impact With Carey Price dominating in net for Montreal, the team's offense didn't need to do much to complete the upset win in the series, and Lehkonen came through late in the third period -- he went wide around Tristan Jarry on the rush and drew the young goalie out of position, then banked home the puck off the skate of a Pittsburgh defender from behind the net. Lehkonen will take a three-game point streak (one goal, two assists) into the next round.
