Stamkos scores career goal 400, but Lightning fall to Jets, 4-3

After blowing out the New York Rangers on Thursday night, it felt like the Tampa Bay Lightning had found their groove this season. For the most part, that stayed true this evening. However, the Winnipeg Jets did just enough with their forecheck, neutral zone pressure, and the fantastic play of Connor Hellebuyck to come out on top 4-3.

Steven Stamkos scored his 400th career goal, marking a personal and franchise milestone (the only player in Lightning history to score that many goals with the organization). That helped eased some of the pain of the loss for the players given how well they played overall.
