The Tampa Bay Lightning snapped their 10-game losing streak and denied one of the game's best players in doing it. The win was just their second in 13 games since coach John Tortorella took over for the fired Steve Ludzik on January 4.
Any win's a step in the right direction.
The players were wavering as far as what we needed to do to get it done. I've been getting chances of late, so I have always had confidence it would pay off for me. We've been in a lot of games. It takes experience to be in those situations and close them out. Hopefully it's a step in the right direction.
