TAMPA, Fla. — The Lightning’s first game against the Maple Leafs since they eliminated Toronto in seven games in the first round of the 2021-22 postseason was a reminder of how evenly matched these teams are.
Saturday night’s meeting at Amalie Arena was back and forth, and needed overtime to be decided on Alex Killorn’s game-winner 33 seconds into the 3-on-3 extra session, giving the Lightning a 4-3 win.
The Lightning (15-8-1) have now won five of their six overtime games this season.
