Jan Rutta was the game’s third star.
One critique you could make of the Lightning’s form in the early going of this season is they have been somewhat careless in protecting leads. They have been singed but not burned up until this point, though. The good news is the Lightning had some cushion in this segment to slip on a banana peel. Now it’s important for them to learn their lesson and get better.
Boris Katchouk had a helper and was +1 with 2 shots and 1 hit in 12:26.
Taylor Raddysh was +1 with 1 shot and 1 hit in 13:02.
Ross Colton had a helper and was +1 with 1 shot and 1 blocked shot in 14:08. He was also 64% on 11 draws.
