Conor Geekie scored the game-winning goal, and Brandon Hagel added two assists as the Tampa Bay Lightning defeated the Washington Capitals 3-1 Saturday night. The performance contrasted sharply with their opening-night showing against the New York Rangers, where they were soundly defeated 5-1. Although it was only the second game of the season, the Lightning were determined to show that they were capable of far more than they showed at Madison Square Garden Thursday night.

Tampa Bay Lightning goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy found himself in a potential legal quandary last week when the Tampa Police Department arrived at Benchmark International Arena looking for him. Officers met with the Bolts netminder after a morning workout to investigate suspicious activity involving his car.
