Jake Guentzel had a goal and an assist, Nick
Paul and Mitchell Chaffee also scored and Victor Hedman had two
assists to help the Lightning end a two-game skid. Jonas
Johansson had 11 saves.
Louis Crevier and Frank Nazar each had a goal and an assist, and
Colton Dach also scored for Chicago, which has a season-high
four-game point streak (1-0-3). Arvid Soderblom finished with 36
saves.
In the extra period, Kucherov beat Soderblom cleanly with a hard
wrist shot from the right circle.
Crevier's goal 4:59 into the second period gave Chicago a 3-1
lead.
Paul pulled the Lightning within one with 8 seconds left in the
middle period, and Guentzel deflected Kucherov's pass from the
right corner to tie the score with 3.3 seconds left in
regulation.
During the game, the Blackhawks sent forward Taylor Hall to
Carolina in a three-way deal.
Takeaways
Lightning: Paul’s goal in the closing seconds of the second
period swung the momentum to Tampa Bay.
Blackhawks: Hall’s departure accelerates Chicago’s youth
movement. Nazar, Dach — who got his first career goal — and
Crevier all have no more than a half-season of NHL experience.
Key moment
Guentzel’s tying goal from the doorstep took the wind out of the
Blackhawks, who had been keeping the Lighting away from the
crease for most of the third period.
Key stat
The Lightning outshot Chicago 40-14, including a 17-1 advantage
in the third period, and had the only shot in overtime.
Up Next
Lightning visit Detroit on Saturday, and Blackhawks host
Minnesota on Sunday.
