Covering the impact of the coronavirus on the world of sport

Throughout the first half of Game 6, one of the themes ultimately was special teams About six minutes into the game, Dallas Stars forward Andrew Cogliano was called up for a penalty. However, the Tampa Bay Lightning were unable to settle into the man advantage and the Stars left no valid scoring chance.

Minutes later Stars defenseman John Klingberg was whistled for a tripping penalty on his own The Lightning didn’t miss their second power-play opportunity With 7:37 left in the period, Lightning forward Brayden Point slipped his way through the slot and broke a shot that Stars goaltender Anton Khudobin could deny But Point continued his own rebound and dropped the game’s first goal to give Tampa Bay a 1-0 lead The goal was the only tally of the first period, one in which the Lightning beat the Stars, 11-4

Point’s goal was his 14th in the playoffs and sets a new Lightning record for goals in a single playoff Moreover, the Lightning has a 10-0 playoff record in games where Point scores a goal
