TB- Moore
Dominic Moore [7] and Victor Hedman [8] were the game's first and third stars.
I give a lot of credit for how the Lightning responded to falling behind by a pair of goals. They responded to adversity the exact opposite to how they did in the last Buffalo game, and that's a welcome sight to see.
Good news/bad news: the Lightning fall 5 points back of the Flyers for 1st place in the conference, but they did move to 6 points ahead of Washington in the Southeast Division with 25 games left in the regular season.
Johan Harju [9] was +1 in 8:24.
Michael Vernace [10] had his first NHL assist and was +1 with 1 shot and 1 hit in 10:44.
