The Tampa Bay Lightning saw their franchise-record 11-game win streak come to an end Thursday night, the Bolts dropping a 5-3 decision to the Vegas Golden Knights at T-Mobile Arena.
The Lightning also had a six-game road win streak and an eight-game road point streak fall by the wayside in Las Vegas.
The Bolts lost for the first time this season to a Pacific Division team, dropping to 10-1-0. Tampa Bay's 13-game win streak against Pacific teams dating to last season was also stopped.
Despite the loss, Lightning head coach Jon Cooper took time to reflect on his team's incredible run, the Bolts knocking off eight-straight teams holding a playoff spot entering the matchup in Las Vegas.
