After struggling to convert scoring changes, Tampa Bay has just 1 goal through the first 2 periods but makes it stick.
According to Benjamin Pierce of the Tampa Bay Lightning, goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy (illness) is viewed as a game-time decision on Thursday for their contest against the Los Angeles Kings. No. 2 goaltender Jonas Johansson (lower body) is also in questionable status for this game.
The Tampa Bay Lightning took a 3-0 win over the Los Angeles Kings on Thursday at AMALIE Arena. Brandon Hagel gave the Lightning a 1-0 advantage 4:45 into the game with a slick move and bury on the rush, and he finished the night with three points.
As the 4-Nations Face-Off tournament and the resulting break loom in February, the Tampa Bay Lightning are seeking one key as January comes to a close: normalcy.
