TAMPA, Fla. — This isn’t the Keith Kinkaid the Devils were relying on during the stretch run of the regular season, and now they are in a hole.
Alex Killorn scored twice during a four-goal second period, helping the Lightning beat the Devils 5-3 on Saturday in Game 2 in the first round of the best-of-seven Eastern Conference series.
The Atlantic Division champions scored three times in a 2:47 span in the second period, and the reeling Devils pulled their starting goalie after Killorn’s third goal in two games made it 5-1 with 6:48 remaining in the period.
