Derek Grant scored twice and John Gibson stopped 32 of 33 shots for the Anaheim Ducks as they defeated the Tampa Bay Lightning 5-1, spoiling Corey Perry’s return to the team he spent most of career with. Ross Colton had the lone Lightning goal while Andrei Vasilevskiy stopped 30 shots of his own in suffering his first career loss to the Ducks.
It’s been two years since the Lightning traveled to Anaheim and they might have missed where the signs along the highway all said, “Caution, Kids at Play!” The young Ducks seemed to have an extra jump from the get go as they swarmed all over the Lightning in the first period.
