The Tampa Bay Lightning defeated the Vancouver Canucks 6-2 in a second-period match, with Darren Raddysh, Yanni Gourde and Nikita Kucherov scoring three goals early in the second period. The win comes at a crucial time for Tampa Bay, which struggled coming out of the Olympic break after being one of the NHL's hottest teams in December and January. The Lightning's Jake Guentzel and Erik Cernak also scored goals, while goalkeeper Andrei Vasilevskiy made 19 saves. The Canucks, who have lost four of their past six games, are currently in last place in the league with 50 points.
