Victor Hedman and Anthony Cirelli were the game’s first and third stars.
Honestly not a huge difference between the blowout in San Jose and tonight except the Lightning got puck look to go with the huge possession advantage in San Jose. Tonight could’ve easily been a laugher too.
Boris Katchouk had 2 hits in 8:05. He’s 5 games out from graduation from prospect status.
Cal Foote had 2 penalty minutes in 12:19.
