TB- Guentzel
Erik Cernak played one shift and 34 seconds before the Lightning’s whole plan for the evening got partially turned upside down. They scrambled and improvised their way to two points. Now the question is the severity of Cernak’s injury because with Moser not scheduled to play again until next month, right side D starts to look very inexperienced and threadbare without him.
Conor Geekie was -2 in 8:01 and was 75% on four draws. The game was his 41st appearance of the season moving him from prospect to Bolt Prospects Alumni status.
Mitchell Chaffee was -1 with 2 shots and 1 hit in 10:06. Mitchell will graduate from prospect status with two more appearances.
Emil Lilleberg was -1 with 2 hits and 1 blocked shot in 21:48. Lilleberg will graduate from prospect status with his next appearance this season.
