The Tampa Bay Lightning kicked off the 2020-21 season with a convincing victory over the Chicago Blackhawks. There were a lot of good things that happened in the game. Steven Stamkos had 3 points, and now has points in the last 17 games he’s played in, the second line provided some offense, and Andrei Vasilevskiy was solid in net with the only goal he allowed coming from behind the net and bouncing off of a skate. Another positive - the debut of Cal Foote.
With his parents in the stands, the 22-year-old defensman appeared in his first NHL game.
