The Lightning (20-11-2, 42 points) still made quick work of the Rangers because of their play on special teams, where they scored twice on the power play and also had two short-handed goals, chasing New York goaltender Igor Shesterkin from the game with 11:52 to play in the second after he allowed five goals on 14 shots.

The Rangers' 6-2 trouncing Saturday at the hands of the Lightning was another disaster in a stretch full of them.

Brayden Point scored twice to lead the Tampa Bay Lightning past the struggling New York Rangers 6-2 on a night when Victor Hedman became the team’s all-time leader in games played.
