Victor Hedman, Nikita Kucherov, and Steven Stamkos were the game’s three stars.

Take out the puck luck goal that Arizona had to open the game and this one is a clear cut laugher. As it was, the Lightning did have to dig out of an early 2-0 deficit and did so convincingly to get the key two points to finish off the calendar year.

With five games left in this 10 game segment of the season, the Lightning are just one point away from their playoff pace benchmark and six points back of a 12 in 10 segment with 10 points still available to earn.

Nick Perbix had 1 shot, 4 hits, and 1 blocked shot in 12:56.
