The Tampa Bay Lightning won the third game in the best-of-seven Stanley Cup Final series Monday night. It was the first game in the series at the United Center.
The Lightning won 3-2.
The series with the Blackhawks stood 1-1 going into the game; they ended the night ahead 2-1 in the series.
Games 1 and 2
In Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final, Chicago rallied for a 2-1 victory in the opener on Wednesday night, with Teuvo Teravainen collecting a goal and an assist during an impressive third period. But the teams were just warming up for Game 2, when they combined for four goals in the second and Tampa Bay used a power-play score from Jason Garrison in the third to earn a crucial victory.
"There was a lot of up-and-down action," Lightning defenseman Braydon Coburn said, describing the frenetic play Saturday night. "Everything happened quick out there as opposed to some other series and some other games. I thought that might have been one of the fastest ones we played so far in the playoffs. Both teams back and forth. Guys making plays quickly with the puck, just the pace up and down the ice.
