Tampa Bay’s Cedric Paquette and Ondrej Palat netted shorthanded goals 49 seconds apart on the same penalty kill in the Lightning’s 5-2 win over the visiting Buffalo Sabres on Monday. Palat, who added two assists for a 3-point night, recorded his 200th assist and 300th point on Nikita Kucherov’s marker to open the game’s scoring. Gourde’s marker was his third game-winning goal against the Sabres this season, and Andrei Vasilevskiy stopped 28 of 30 shots. The Lightning played without captain Steven Stamkos, who missed his second game with a lower-body injury. The Sabres, who had four power plays, have scored only once in their last 31 man-advantage chances over their last 11 games.
