Quick Strikes: Mathieu Joseph shines in disappointing 4-1 preseason loss for Tampa Bay Lightning

The Tampa Bay Lightning were handily beaten by the Carolina Hurricanes in their preseason game of the year. The Canes beat the Bolts 4-1 at AMALIE Arena, Andrei Vasilevskiy taking the loss in 60 minutes of play. The game wasn’t particularly close, with Carolina out-shooting Tampa Bay 17-35, including managing an embarassingly low three shots on goal in the second period.

Over nine minutes in and Lightning with their first shot on goal of the period. Someone in the stands yelled "WE GOT A SHOT!"
