The Tampa Bay Lightning are down 0-1 in their first round series with the New York Rangers after a lacklustre performance on defense and a worryingly futile showing on offense. [Raw Charge]
“The Lightning looked flat from the get-go and never found their footing. Andrei Vasilevskiy looked average, allowing all six goals on 34 shots. Stamkos and Palat scored the goals for the Lightning as the Bolts power play went 0/3. The Rangers power play meanwhile scored on one of their two chances.”
After the game, both Steven Stamkos and Victor Hedman spoke after the game about what went wrong and the changes they need to make.
