Brayden Point scored during a power play in overtime, leading the Tampa Bay Lightning to a 3-2 win against the Nashville Predators on Friday.
In addition to Point’s efforts, Anthony Cirelli and Brandon Hagel found the back of the net for Tampa Bay, while Juuse Saros managed 25 saves for Nashville.
Roman Josi contributed both goals for the Predators, and Jonas Johansson made 29 saves for the Lightning. Johansson's impressive play supports the team’s playoff ambitions, particularly in matches where Andrei Vasilevskiy is absent.
Nashville’s consecutive overtime defeats have earned them only two points, falling short of the necessary standings for a team aiming for the playoffs.
A crucial moment occurred when Saros successfully blocked Jake Guentzel's shot attempt late in the third, maintaining the 2-2 tie.
Josi has notched five goals in his last four outings compared to just one in Nashville's initial 18 games.
The Lightning are set to play the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday, while the Predators head to face the Minnesota Wild.
