told ESPN earlier this week the pursuit of multiple Stanley Cup wins was “a legacy thing.” “Multiple Cups, it gives you good street cred for the guys, for the organization,” Cooper added.
Lightning rookies Ross Colton (forward) and defenseman David Savard were the only two team members not a part of the Lightning’s 2020 championship win, but the two secured the winning goal for the team in the second period when Savard passed to Colton who tipped the puck past Montreal goalkeeper Carey Price.
The goal was Colton’s fourth in the series. Lightning goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy ended the series with a shutout this game, setting an NHL record for most shutouts in a series with five since the 2020 final — he made 22 saves in the final match.
