Bolts Win Game 4, Tie Series 2-2 Against the Rangers

Tampa Bay did not wait long to get on the board in Game 4. Defenseman Zach Bogosian made an unreal move to the net and Pat Maroon scooped up the rebound.

The Bolts led the Rangers 1-0 after the first period.

Nikita Kucherov's line was driving play for much of the second period, and they were rewarded with a goal on a breakaway.

Steven Stamkos scored early in the third period to give the Bolts a seemingly unsurmountable 3-0 lead.

Following a holding call on Alex Killorn, Artemi Panarin ruined the shutout for Andrei Vasilevskiy by scoring on the powerplay.

After a 3 minute onslaught by the Rangers' with their extra attacker, Ondrej Palat scored an empty net goal to seal the deal.

For the netminders, Vasilevskiy made 33 saves on 34 shots for a .971 save percentage. His counterpart at the other end, Igor Shesterkin had 26 saves on 29 shots for a .897 save percentage.

Bolts win Game 4 at home 4-1. They tied the series 2-2 heading to New York on Thursday night.
