2. Scoring in Every Other Situation
Again, Toronto had the better of the play at 5-on-5. And the three Lightning regulation goals came in just about every other situation there is.
Ondrej Palat’s goal to open the scoring came at 4-on-4 after Tampa Bay surrendered a pair of goals at 4-on-4 in game 5. Anthony Cirelli scored his first of the series shorthanded and Kucherov on the powerplay gave the Lightning life when they seemed left for dead.
