Bryan Burns: Tampa Bay Lightning coach Jon Cooper on if defensemen Zach Bogosian and Luke Schenn were unfit to play last night or if it was a coach’s decision: “It’s hard for me to answer that question. I would say it was one and one.”
Joe Smith: Cooper on the lineup decisions to add Jan Rutta and Carter Verhaeghe: “To go more in decision making we’ve been with this group for a while we felt this group could fit the pace of play we needed and they did.
