TAMPA, Fla. _ The Lightning gave up another third-period lead on Thursday. They entered the period up by a goal, and led by two goals early in the second period. In the end, however, the Stars won, 4-3, in overtime.
Tyler Seguin landed the game-winner, beating Andrei Vasilevskiy cleanly with two minutes left in the overtime.
Dallas scored first but the lead didn't last. Alexander Radulov tipped Tyler Seguin's shot through Vasilevskiy's legs for a power-play goal at 4:09.
Mikhail Sergachev tied the game with a power-play goal of his own nine minutes later. Sergachev fired a one-timer from the center point that deflected off the crossbar and in. Sergachev now has five goals, one short of his total all last season.
Alex Killorn gave the Lightning a 2-1 lead less than three minutes later on another power-play goal. He redirected a pass from Nikita Kucherov, who was back in his usual spot with his usual minutes after being benched for the third period Tuesday.
Ondrej Palat added to the lead early in the second period, well, kind of. Sergachev's shot from the left point hit Palat and deflected into the goal put the Lightning up 3-1. That lead, however, didn't stand either.
Radek Faska scored off the rush with 2:03 left in the second period to bring the Stars within one.
Jason Dickinson tied it up with 4:18 left to play in the third. He carried the puck into the zone, then dished it off to Andrew Cogliano. Vasilevskiy made a save on Cogliano's shot, but left a rebound sitting in the crease. Dickinson rushed the net and tapped it in.
