Kucherov finished with a goal and two assists, Steve Stamkos had a goal and two assists, and Anthony Cirelli and Ross Colton also scored for the Lightning. Brian Elliott made 19 saves. Nashville defensemen Roman Josi and Alexander Carrier scored power-play goals. Saros allowed six goals on 30 shots before being replaced by David Rittich, who made eight saves.
