Tampa Bay Lightning win hockey's Stanley Cup
The Tampa Bay Lightening defeated the Dallas Stars 2-0 Monday night to win the 2020 Stanley Cup, the team's second National Hockey League's championship in franchise history. Their first Stanley Cup was in 2004. The Lighting shut out the Stars in Monday's Game 6 with a power-play goal by Brayden Point in the first period followed by a second-period goal by forward Blake Coleman, who got the puck from Pat Maroon off a turnover by the Stars' Alexander Radulov.
This year's NHL season resumed play over the summer in COVID-19 bubbles in Toronto and Edmonton, Canada. The league said it administered 33,174 coronavirus tests to players and club personnel in quarantine and recorded no positive tests in the past nine weeks.
