PHILADELPHIA — Forward Nick Paul quickly scooped the puck out of the net for safe-keeping as Lightning players rushed off the bench to circle Steven Stamkos.
The Philadelphia crowd, not knowing the magnitude of the second-period goal, booed the celebration before it received more information on the Wells Fargo Center video board.
Stamkos’ secondary assist on Paul’s second goal of the game made him the first player to score 1,000 points in a Lightning sweater, as Tampa Bay capped its three-game road trip with a 4-1 win over the struggling Flyers.
