The Tampa Bay Lightning jumped out to a big lead and then held off the Dallas Stas for a 3-2 win in Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final in Edmonton to even the series at a game apiece.
Brayden Point and Ondrej Palat scored power-play goals 2:59 apart and Kevin Shattenkirk lit the lamp 54 seconds after Palat’s marker to help Tampa Bay build a 3-0 first period lead.
Nikita Kucherov drew the primary assist on both power-play goals to set a new Lightning record for points in a postseason.
