TAMPA, Fla. — The “recipe” still works.
The Lightning dispatched the New York Rangers, a team that might have presented their toughest challenge of the past three postseasons, in the Eastern Conference final. They advance to their third straight Stanley Cup Final with a 2-1 win in Game 6 at Amalie Arena.
The Lightning became the first team to advance to the Stanley Cup Final for three straight seasons since the Oilers (1983-85).
