Well, how about that comeback? Down 2-0 in Game Four with less than five and a half minutes left in the third period, in jeopardy of falling behind three games to one in the series, the Lightning rattled off two goals in a 1:17 span to tie the game and then won it in overtime. Words don’t do justice to the significance of this rally, which helped the Lightning tie the series at two games apiece. But I’ll try.
The Lightning knew they needed to play better than they did on Tuesday in Game Three – and their first period was quite good.
