TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Andrei Vasilevskiy made 27 saves for his fourth shutout of the season and the 38th of his career in the Tampa Bay Lightning's 3-0 victory over the Calgary Flames on Thursday night.
Nikita Kucherov became the third player to reach the 90-point mark, joining the other Art Ross Trophy leaders, Nathan MacKinnon and Leon Draisaitl, who both put up multi-point performances of their own.
The Tampa Bay Lightning extended their winning streak to seven games on Thursday, wrapping up a three-game homestand with a 3-0 victory over the Calgary Flames.
