NEW YORK -- Andrei Vasilevskiy made 34 saves, including 20 in the third period, and Nikita Kucherov had a goal and an assist to help the Tampa Bay Lightning to a 4-0 win against the New York Islanders at Barclays Center on Monday.
JT Brown, Ryan Callahan and Vladislav Namestnikov each had a goal, and Steven Stamkos had two assists for the Lightning (9-6-1), who outscored the Islanders 14-2 in a three-game season-series sweep.
"We sat back probably a little too much in the third and put [Vasilevskiy] in a tough position to make some big saves to earn that shutout," Stamkos said. "But the first two periods were pretty good."
