Nikita Kucherov and Brayden Point were the game’s first and second stars.
Once again the Lightning didn’t put forth a Picasso, but they got the two points to extend their winning streak to five games. A win in their next game will put them dead on 12 in 10 pace at the end of the seventh 10-game segment of the campaign. They’re taking care of the business that has to be taken care of.
Emil Lilleberg had 2 penalty minutes, 1 shot, 1 hit, and 1 blocked shot in 15:21.
