Anthony Cirelli was the game’s second star.
The Lightning gave away at least a point in the Third Period tonight at a time when they really can’t afford to be dropping points. Tonight’s result sealed an unsuccessful second segment of the campaign and they’ll need a win in game 20 to keep from falling off playoff pacing.
