What this means for the Penguins: They couldn't hold leads of 2-0 and 3-2 and will face elimination in Game 6 on Tuesday. Will Penguins coach Mike Sullivan stick with Fleury or switch back to rookie Matt Murray with the season on the line?
What this means for the Lightning:They never led until the final goal, but were resilient again and moved within one win of reaching the Stanley Cup Final for the second year in a row.
Key moment:Garrison let go a wrist shot from the left circle that deflected in off Johnson's backside in front for his second winner in as many games.
Unsung player of the game: Lightning center Vladislav Namestnikov has responded from moving up from the fourth line to the second line the past two games. He set up Kucherov's goal with 5:35 remaining in the second period that tied the game 2-2.
What's next: Game 6 is Tuesday at Amalie Arena (8 p.m. ET; NBCSN, CBC, TVA Sports).
