The Tampa Bay Lightning have struggled in the second period of games this season. They’ve also struggled on the road. Oh yeah, they’ve also struggled against Atlantic Division opponents. On Saturday night they kicked all three of those situations to the curb as they absolutely dominated the Boston Bruins in the second period of their 6-2 victory.
Andrei Vasilevskiy had to make just 10 saves to pick up the win, with zero saves coming in the second period as the Lightning didn’t allow a shot to the hometown team. Anthony Cirelli snapped his goalless streak with two tallies to set a career-high of 22 goals on the season.
