The Bolts battled back from 2-0 and 3-2 deficits, but a late second-period power play goal by Brady Tkachuk, and a third-period short-handed goal by Noah Gregor proved to be the difference. The Lightning failed to find the equalizer after Mitchell Chaffee brought them within a goal midway through the third period.
