Was it a perfect win for the Tampa Bay Lightning? No, but they took care of business as they helped Vancouver get one step closer to the best odds in the draft lottery downing the Canucks, 6-2. Six different players scored for the Lightning and Nikita Kucherov posted a three-point night in the victory. Andrei Vasilevskiy stopped 19-of-21 for the victory.
There were some struggled along the way as Vancouver was able to pin them in the zone for stretches at times. The passing wasn’t as crisp as it needed to be for the Lightning, and against a better team there might have been a different outcome.
