The Tampa Bay Lightning experienced a Colorado Avalanche in Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final -- pun intended.
Colorado scored early and often, notching three goals in the first period. The onslaught never let up, as the Avalanche routed the Lightning 7-0. Valeri Nichushkin and Cale Makar scored two goals apiece for Colorado.
For the Lightning, it was their largest margin of defeat in a playoff game, per ESPN Stats & Information. Before Saturday's blowout, the biggest margin was five goals (Game 1 in the first round of the 2022 postseason against the Toronto Maple Leafs and Game 6 in the 1996 conference quarterfinals against the Philadelphia Flyers).
