Lightning Round: Jon Cooper benched the Lightning’s biggest stars after another loss

The Tampa Bay Lightning couldn’t get revenge after a loss against the Buffalo Sabres over a week ago, losing their second consecutive game against them. After opening the scoring in the first period, the Lightning allowed five goals in a row, including three in the second period, and couldn’t rebound from such a deficit.

In a scene that is becoming all to familiar to fans of the Tampa Bay Lightning, a poor second period led to another defeat.
