Steven Stamkos and Nikita Kucherov each had two goals and an assist as the Tampa Bay Lightning defeated the visiting Carolina Hurricanes 6-4 in Game 4 on Saturday to take a 3-1 lead in the second-round series.

“Probably the craziest playoff period you’re going to see the rest of the way,” Stamkos said after the game.
