Nikita Kucherov tied the game late in the third and Anthony Cirelli won it in overtime as the Tampa Bay Lightning overcame a dismal second period, two overturned goals, and a feisty Anaheim Ducks team to secure a fifth straight trip to the postseason with a 4-3 win on Thursday night. Alex Killorn and Ross Colton also scored for the Bolts while Adam Henrique and Troy Terry (x2) scored for Anaheim.
Brian Elliott came on in relief of Andrei Vasilevskiy and stopped all 12 shots he faced. Anthony Stolarz stopped 27 of 31 for the Ducks.
