Player of the Week: Steven Stamkos

Steven Stamkos picked up right where he left off after the All-Star break, leading the Bolts in goals and points in four games last week.

The Lightning Captain scored both of Tampa Bay's goals in a 3-2 overtime loss to the Stars on Monday night. Stamkos opened the scoring in the second period and then forced overtime with a game-tying goal in the final two minutes of regulation.

On Wednesday in Los Angeles, Stamkos scored twice and added an assist to help the Bolts rally over the Kings. He capped off an incredible shift for Tampa Bay with a one-timed goal from the left circle to tie the game at two in the second peirod and then added an insurance marker late in the third to put the game out of reach.
After picking up an assist on Friday in Anaheim, Stamkos closed the week with another multipoint performance on Saturday in San Jose. Stamkos scored the game-winner early in the second and picked up the primary assist on Niktia Kucherov's third peirod goal in the 3-0 win over the Sharks.
Stamkos' personal point streak now sits at seven games with 12 points over that span.
