The Tampa Bay Lightning’s eight game win streak ended tonight in Winnipeg against the Jets as they lost 5-4 in overtime. This one was exciting from start to finish. Both teams showcased why they’re among the favorites to compete for their Stanley Cup and if we get this rematch in late May and June, no neutral fan would be disappointed.
Anton Stralman returned to the lineup tonight for the Lightning after missing several weeks. Erik Cernak shifted to the press box as expected but he will stay with the team during the road trip and head coach Jon Cooper said that he expects him to play this week.
