The Tampa Bay Lightning had a trip to the Eastern Conference Finals on the line on Thursday, but their goalie didn't play like it.

An awful performance in Game 3 got Ben Bishop benched in the second period after giving up three goals on just 14 shots. The third one was the worst, by far. Canadiens winger David Desharnais skated down the wing, let loose a shot and Bishop didn't exactly get all of it.

Yikes, indeed. Makes one wonder if Bishop will get the nod in Game 5.
