Lightning top Hurricanes for 7th straight win:
Steven Stamkos had a goal and two assists and Tyler Johnson, Anthony Cirelli, Brayden Point and Ryan McDonagh all scored for the Lightning, who scored four unanswered goals in the third period to erase a 3-2 deficit.
Nino Niederreiter, Dougie Hamilton and Jordan Staal scored for the Hurricanes. Staal's short-handed, go-ahead goal in the second period came after he returned from hit to the head from Lightning centre Yanni Gourde, who was given a match penalty and ejected. Stamkos opened the scoring at 3:20 of the first on a power play with a wrist shot into the upper corner of the net, but Niederreiter responded with a hard wrister that nicked the knob of Domingue's stick on its way to the upper right corner midway through the first.
The second period belonged to Carolina when Staal made his return and scored a short-handed, breakaway goal to give the Hurricanes the lead back, but it wouldn't last.After Erik Cernak got called for tripping and Warren Foegele was sent off for embellishment to create a four-on-four matchup, Cirelli tied the score when he fought through a tie-up with Teuvo Teravainen to get just enough of Stamkos' centring pass and push it into the net.
