The Tampa Bay Lightning on Sunday dropped a 4-2 game to the Vegas Golden Knights at T-Mobile Arena. Vegas opened the scoring on a first period power-play goal and added another score two minutes, 31 seconds later. A Jack Eichel goal in the final minute of the period made it 3-0 after 20 minutes.

Ilya Samsonov turned away 35 of 37 shots to lead the Vegas Golden Knights to their third straight victory, 4-2 over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Sunday night in Las Vegas.

LAS VEGAS — Nick Paul scored late in the second period and Nikita Kucherov late in the third Sunday night, but it was too little, too late in the Lightning’s 4-2 loss to the Golden Knights. Otherwise, Tampa Bay was unable to solve Vegas goaltender Ilya Samsonov, who stopped 35 of 37 shots.
