Quick Strikes: Nikita Kucherov injured in Lightning’s 3-2 to loss to Panthers

The Tampa Bay Lightning were leading 2-0 heading into the third period against the Florida Panthers, but three straight goals from the Cats in the span of 10 minutes ultimately did the Bolts in.

Andrei Vasilevskiy took home the “L” after letting in three goals on 12 shots in the third period after what was a stellar first 40 minutes where he stopped all 16 shots he faced. Adam Erne and Alex Killorn scored the goals for the Lightning, while Brayden Point and Erik Cernak both shared the team lead in shots on goal over the game with four.
