On Tuesday, the Lightning looked like a different team than the one that got shelled 6-0 in Raleigh on March 5.
Unlike that matchup earlier this month, Tampa Bay was patient, responsible defensively and opportunistic to return the favor with a 4-0 victory over the Hurricanes at PNC Arena.

Steven Stamkos and Brayden Point both registered three points to pace the offense. Andrei Vasilevskiy made 29 saves to backstop the win and record his third shutout of the season.
Next up for the Bolts is a return to home ice where they'll face the Capitals on Thursday.
