Barré-Boulet made it 2-0 on a redirection at 17:51 of the second. Point picked up his eighth assist on the goal. Paul scored with about three minutes to play in the third period. The game had a chippy ending with a couple of scrums and a fight during the final three minutes following Paul’s goal.Lightning coach Jon Cooper when asked if it surprises him that chemistry on defense sometimes doesn’t carry over from year-to-year:
“I’ll be honest. One player who will go unnamed is not with us any longer, he said he needs a complete system review coming into camp every year because he’s completely forgotten it by the time the summer is over,” he said. “So that will tell you what the players need and I think he’s speaking for a lot of players.”Hurricanes: G Frederik Andersen, who took a shot off the mask a week ago and missed two games, was the backup. … RW Andrei Svechnikov took part in the morning skate but didn’t play.
