Watch: Point redirects perfect slap pass for 2nd birthday goal
Brad Penner / USA Today Sports
Brayden Point had himself a rather nice 21st birthday.
The Tampa forward snapped a six-game goalless streak in the first period, then for an encore, redirected what stood to be the game-winning goal past Antti Raanta on a gorgeous slap pass from Ondrej Palat.
Point's heroics are huge for the injury-depleted Lightning, who moved within one point of the final wild-card spot in the East after the win.
