A two point night for Steven Stamkos was not enough in his return to Amalie Arena, as the slow-starting Predators fell to the Tampa Bay Lightning 3-2 in overtime, maintaining a four-game point streak.
The game was yet another trademark slow Nashville start, as the Predators were completely unable to string together an offensive possession. With the Predators chasing the puck and failing to enter the offensive zone, Tampa was able to cash in halfway through the period, Jake Guentzel found Braydon Point, who came across the crease and buried the shot past Juuse Saros, and Tampa Bay led 1-0.
