Led by Victor Hedman<\/a>‘s three assists and Brayden Point<\/a>‘s pair of goals, The Tampa Bay Lightning stayed mathematically alive in the Eastern Conference playoff race by beating the Toronto Maple Leafs 4-1 last night.<\/p>\n

Andrei Vasilevskiy<\/a> stopped 26 shots and Nikita Kucherov<\/a> and Michael Bournival<\/a> also scored for the Lightning.<\/p>\n

Nazem Kadri<\/a> scored the only goal for Toronto.<\/p>\n

The scoreless first period was a fun filled physical one that was dominated by the Lightning early on. \u00a0They were outshooting Toronto 7-2 at one point and shots ended up 13-11 Tampa Bay after 20 minutes. The Lightning outhit the Leafs 16-4, but again were outclassed in the faceoff circle 17-7.<\/p>\n

Lightning goalie Andrei Vasilevskiy<\/a> played well making some big saves while being shorthanded.<\/p>\n[protected-iframe id=”1ad9a324196a1821c4bcdc1cb5731011-114320562-46289989″ info=”https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/video\/embed\/vasilevskiy-robs-kadri-with-pad\/t-283476724\/c-51171803?autostart=false” width=”540″ height=”360″]\n

The second period started with the Bolts killing off a Braydon Coburn<\/a> penalty and then Coburn and Matt Martin<\/a> dropping the gloves because he pushed Auston Matthews<\/a> \u00a0into the net.<\/p>\n

With Roman Polak<\/a> in the penalty box, the Lightning took a 1-0 lead on a Brayden Point<\/a> one-timer power play goal off a nice feed by Ondrej Palat<\/a> at 7:34. Point’s 15th goal was assisted by Palat (33) and Victor Hedman<\/a> (53). Hedman’s assist was his NHL leading 29th with the man advantage.<\/p>\n[protected-iframe id=”60cb404873ef6396689c425d1ed3a640-114320562-46289989″ info=”https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/video\/embed\/point-palat-combine-for-ppg\/t-283476724\/c-51176103?autostart=false” width=”540″ height=”360″]\n

At 9:42, Toronto’s Nazem Kadri<\/a> scored his 32nd of the year to tie the game at one. Matt Hunwick<\/a> (16) and Tyler Bozak<\/a> (36) earned the assists.<\/p>\n[protected-iframe id=”535fa5d1b38392f8b025126af8a13ca3-114320562-46289989″ info=”https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/video\/embed\/kadris-tip-in-tally\/t-283476724\/c-51176403?autostart=false” width=”540″ height=”360″]\n

The Bolts went up 2-1 at 11:50 when Nikita Kucherov<\/a> stickhandled through three Leafs and scored his 39th of the year on a snipe that eluded Toronto goalie Frederik Andersen<\/a>. Victor Hedman<\/a> (54) assisted on the goal. With the assist, Hedman tied Erik Karlsson<\/a> for most assists by a defenseman this year.<\/p>\n[protected-iframe id=”1986a38d854b6e11f9ef2716eaaa3b18-114320562-46289989″ info=”https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/video\/embed\/kucherov-buries-a-beauty\/t-283476724\/c-51177403?autostart=false” width=”540″ height=”360″]\n

Accumulative shots were 23-22 in favor of Tampa Bay. The Lightning also led in hits 24-17. The Bolts had only won 36% of their faceoffs.<\/p>\n

The Bolts went up 3-1 at the two minute mark of the third period when Michael Bournival<\/a> scored his second of the year from Andrej Sustr<\/a> (11) and Victor Hedman<\/a> (55). The assist was Sustr’s third in the last five games. It was a huge goal by the fourth line.<\/p>\n[protected-iframe id=”1243efc09a8d2a538ba854d3f6140025-114320562-46289989″ info=”https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/video\/embed\/bournival-pots-wrister-in-close\/t-283476724\/c-51180203?autostart=false” width=”540″ height=”360″]\n

Brayden Point<\/a> scored his second of the game and 16th of the year at 14:11 on a wicked wrister that beat Andersen up high to make it 4-1 Lightning. The four-on-four assists went to Ondrej Palat<\/a> (34)) and Jake Dotchin<\/a> (9).<\/p>\n[protected-iframe id=”4b5386cbc46ba371592238cfa8963b68-114320562-46289989″ info=”https:\/\/www.nhl.com\/video\/embed\/point-nets-second-goal\/t-283476724\/c-51182203?autostart=false” width=”540″ height=”360″]\n
