Hedman’s overtime winner, Vasilevskiy’s heroics lift Lightning past Florida

After getting embarrassed in their previous game 7-2 by the Nashville Predators, the Tampa Bay Lightning showed signs of life this evening in their 3-2 win over the Florida Panthers. Outplayed for large swaths of the game, the Lightning did just enough to get by their division rival and lock in another critical two points in the standings. Alex Killorn, Ross Colton, and Victor Hedman scored for Tampa Bay. Patric Hornqvist and Anthony Duclair scored for Florida. Andrei Vasilevskiy had another stellar game in net with 36 saves on 38 shots. Chris Driedger made 16 saves on 19 shots.
