Steven Stamkos, Vasilevskiy, and Victor Hedman were the game’s three stars.
I have a hard time being triumphal about beating a middle tier AHL team. If anybody knows what the heck Ron Francis is doing up there, send me a telegram, because the roster construction has made no sense to me.
Dan Boyle’s Lightning record of 20 goals by a defenseman in the 2006-2007 season looks to be in serious peril all of a sudden. One of the few records Hedman doesn’t own, yet.
