The Tampa Bay Lightning dominated the San Jose Sharks in a game that ended with a score of 6-0. Mikey Eyssimont, who used to play for the Sharks, scored two goals for the Lightning. Brayden Point, Steven Stamkos, and Luke Glendening also contributed to the score. The Lightning had a strong power play, with Stamkos scoring a power play goal. The Sharks struggled to keep up, with their only shot on goal coming from beyond center ice. The Lightning's quick breakouts and precise passing allowed them to control the game.

The Lightning just break out of their own zone so quickly. Hagel makes it 4-0. As soon as a second Sharks forechecker went deep into the Tampa zone, the Lightning broke it out, went tic-tac-toe, and Hagel was in all alone on Blackwood.
Silky pass from Kucherov to Stamkos and he buries his third of the season to make it 3-0 with just under a minute remaining in the first. #Bolts still have a 5-on-4 power play for the next 1:20.

#Bolts can't convert on the power play but they score immediately after as Eyssimont redirects a point shot from de Haan and makes it 2-0 with 13:57 left in the first. Shots are 8-1 Tampa Bay and I believe the lone San Jose shot on goal came from beyond center ice.
