Tampa Bay Lightning says team 'lost game not serious' after Game 2 drubbing
The Lightning had been one of the best teams in the NHL at making Game 2 adjustments. They were 9-2 in the second games of series, allowing just 1.91 goals against per game since 2020.
Colorado Avalanche 'close to perfect' in Game 2 blowout of Tampa Bay Lightning
It was a performance so good that even Avalanche coach Jared Bednar had no real notes on how to improve.

Game 1: Avalanche beat Lightning in OT to open Stanley Cup Final
When the puck dropped, the Avalanche showed they could use their speed to offset Tampa Bay's players who have been here, done that. And it doesn't hurt to have a guy who also hoisted the Cup. Burakovsky is one of only two Colorado players with Stanley Cup rings, and that came in handy.
Game 2: https://www.espn.com/nhl/recap/_/gameId/401445849]Reigning NHL champion Lightning in 2-0 hole to Avalanche
What emerged from the Tampa Bay Lightning on Saturday night wasn't their championship pedigree or vaunted ability to bounce back but frayed nerves and maybe a realization that the Colorado Avalanche are coming swiftly for their crown. Outmuscled. Outhustled. Out-tussled.
Game 3: [/SIZE[/SIZEhttps://www.espn.com/nhl/recap/_/gameId/401445850]Lighting voice back, beat Avalanche 6-2 in Game 3
Steven Stamkos and Ondrel Palat each had a goal and an assist, and the Tampa w Lightningscored four times in the second period and beat the Colorado Avalanche Monday night in Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Final.

Colorado Avalanche wins first Stanley Cup since 2001with Game 6 comeback
Colorado's Cup win was the culmination of a dominant postseason run, during which the Avalanche went 16-4 overall and swept both their first-round series against Nashville and the Western Conference finals against Edmonton.
Lightning dethroned, but who says their done
The Tampa Bay Lightning fell short of the first Stanley Cup three-peat since 1983 -- but they don't believe their dynasty has crumbled.

How Nathan MacKinnon molded the Colorado Avalanche into Stanley Cup champions
Nathan MacKinnon raised the Stanley Cup over his head and then lowered it to his lips.The Colorado Avalanche, a team he dreamed of playing for as a child, were champions for the first time since 2001. MacKinnon, their 26-year-old superstar, had a goal and an assist in their 2-1 Game 6 win over the Tampa Bay Lightning to earn that championship. MacKinnon scored 13 goals and 24 points in the playoffs, doing all he could to secure a title for Colorado and lock down his own legacy as an NHL star. Even if the latter didn't matter much to MacKinnon before the Stanley Cup Final. On the ice, he has been a star. Off the ice, MacKinnon was "the battery of our team, he makes everything go," as defenseman Erik Johnson put it. The guy who would say or do anything to ensure that his team finally reached its potential.
