Nick Perbix and Brandon Hagel were the game’s first and second stars.
Lord the Kings play a boring style of game, but full marks to the Lightning for coming back against the strength of the Kings club. It was the energy guys like Hagel and Eyssimont that ultimately led the way. Rare to see Kucherov fail to hit the scoresheet and the Lightning still win.
Alex Barre-Boulet was -2 with 1 shot in 8:25.
Emil Lilleberg had a helper, his first NHL point, 3 hits, and 1 blocked shot in 16:38. The amount of IT confirms he’s a serious threat to stick now.
