TAMPA BAY 4,
PITTSBURGH 3
WHEN: 7:00
PM ET, Thursday, November 15, 2018
WHERE: PPG PAINTS Arena,
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
REFEREES: Garrett Rank, Furman South
LINESMEN: Kory Nagy, Tony Sericolo
ATTENDANCE: 18422
Brayden Point's natural hat trick Thursday erased an
early two-goal deficit for the visiting Tampa Bay Lightning en route to a 4-3
win over the Pittsburgh Penguins.
Yanni Gourde scored the deciding goal in the second
period, and Nikita Kucherov had three assists for Tampa Bay, which ended a
two-game losing streak by scoring all four goals on power plays.
Louis Domingue made 28 saves for the Lightning, as Tampa
Bay played without No. 1 goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy, who was sent home for
evaluation of a broken foot he suffered in practice Wednesday.
Patric Hornqvist had two goals and an assist, Phil Kessel
scored his ninth goal of the season and Evgeni Malkin added two assists for
Pittsburgh, which fell to 1-6-1 in its past eight games.
Pittsburgh No. 1 goaltender Matt Murray stopped 22 of 26
shots. He had not played since Nov. 5 as the Penguins gave him time to work on
his game. He has not won since Oct. 25.
Pittsburgh was without captain Sidney Crosby, who is
day-to-day because of an upper-body injury he suffered Tuesday at New Jersey.
Hornqvist deflected a Kessel shot past Domingue's glove
at 10:33 of the first period for a power-play goal and a 1-0 Pittsburgh lead.
Kessel's power-play goal at 13:49 of the first, a snapper
from the slot, made it 2-0.
Point began his spree with a five-on-three goal with 2.7
seconds left in the first on a shot from the lower left circle high off the far
post to cut it to 2-1.
He tied the score 41 seconds into the second, again on a
five-on-three, on a one-timer from Steven Stamkos, and gave the Lightning a 3-2
lead on a conventional power play at 1:28 of the second, on a one-timer from
the slot.
Hornqvist scored his second goal at 4:29 of the second,
shoveling it under Domingue for a 3-3 tie on the game's only even-strength
goal.
Gourde boosted Tampa Bay to 4-for-4 on the power play,
and to a 4-3 lead at 7:56 of the second, with a blast from the top of the right
circle.
