The Lightning right wing scores a highlight-reel goal and becomes the second player in team history to claim 600 assists.

Jake Evans scores with 2:15 remaining as the Canadiens close the gap between the teams in the Atlantic Division.

Jake Guentzel, who won a Stanley Cup with Pittsburgh in 2017, had two assists to become the second player in Lightning history with at least 20 goals and 40 points in his first 40 games with the franchise. Guentzel signed a seven-year deal with the team in the offseason.

During his point streak, Kucherov has been peppering opposing netminders with rubber, racking up 37 shots over those 10 outings.

Nikita Kucherov swiped the puck and converted on a breakaway with three minutes remaining as the Tampa Bay Lightning broke a tie and claimed the season series from the host Pittsburgh Penguins, 5-2, on Sunday.

Raymond scored a power-play goal, as the Wings continued their stellar run on the power play (10th game with a goal in 11 games). The Wings were 1-for-6 on the power play. The Wings put 40 shots on Tampa goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy but in some ways that was a misguided statistic.

The Tampa Bay Lightning's acquisition of star winger Jake Guentzel is paying off in spades, and the Bolts look like a team no one should want to face off against in the playoffs.
