Tampa Bay's Dwayne Roloson stopped several good scoring chances in first, including shots from Alex Ovechkin and Mike Knuble. He made a second-period glove save on Mike Green, who whacked his stick on the glass in frustration.
Neuvirth stopped a shot from the slot by Stamkos, and rookie J.T. Brown's in-close chance during the second.
