Bieber Fan Brian Elliott shuts out Buffalo

A day after he turned 37-years-old (which he apparently celebrated by attending a Justin Bieber concert), Brian Elliott stopped all 27 Buffalo Sabres shots that he faced as he posted his first shutout as a member of the Tampa Bay Lightning with a 5-0 victory. The home team snapped their four-game losing streak and leapfrogged the Boston Bruins (who lost to the Washington Capitals) in the standings. Five different members of the Lightning scored. Corey Perry and Ondrej Palat stopped long goalless streaks while Brandon Hagel, Nikita Kucherov, and Ross Colton also added to their goal totals.
