Lightning even Stanley Cup Final with Game 2 win

TAMPA -- Two goalies taking turns in the crease in the third period. A low-scoring defenseman getting the biggest goal of all.

The Tampa Bay Lightning found some strange ways to even the Stanley Cup Final.

Jason Garrison scored the tiebreaking power-play goal with 11:11 to play, rookie goalie Andrei Vasilevskiy relieved Ben Bishop twice to earn the victory, and the Lightning beat the Chicago Blackhawks 4-3 in Game 2 on Saturday night to even the series.

Nikita Kucherov had a goal and an assist for the Lightning, who played with all the aggression they lacked in the third period of Game 1 when Chicago rallied late to win.
