The two-time defending champions' thrilling 3-2 win, on forward Ondrej Palat's goal, sends the series back to Tampa.
The two-time defending champion Tampa Bay Lightning staved off elimination with a thrilling 3-2 win, holding on after forward Ondrej Palat scored to break a deadlock with 6:22 remaining, just the latest huge strike for Palat in these playoffs. Colorado still leads the best-of-seven series 3-2.
Vasilevskiy made 35 saves on a night when the Lightning needed him most. He was a wall during Colorado’s two power-play chances of the night, turning away multiple high-danger opportunities. The Lightning bent but didn’t break after Makar’s early third-period goal and withstood a strong Colorado push before Palat’s heroics.
The first period was a battle of special teams before Rutta’s goal. The Lightning was stifled twice on the power play in the opening 10 minutes.
