Bolts go for sweep Monday night
May 23, 2022 - Following a dominant 5-1 victory over the Florida Panthers on Sunday, the Tampa Bay Lightning took a commanding 3-0 series lead they will look to finish at home Monday night. While the Panthers finished the regular season as the NHL’s highest-scoring team in 26 years, the defending champs have held them to just one goal in each of the series’ three games. Tampa Bay’s Nikita Kucherov finished with a four-point game Sunday with seven goals in the series alone. Beating the Panthers on their home ice Monday night would earn the Lightning some much-needed rest before the Eastern Conference Finals as they look to win three straight Stanley Cups. The puck drops at 7 p.m. in Amelie Arena.
