This Lightning superstar dominated in his return to the lineup.
After missing four games due to injury, Tampa Bay Lightning forward Brayden Point returned to the lineup for the club's matchup against the Pittsburgh Penguins. The star did not disappoint in his return, either, as he had a monster game.
Point got the Lightning's third-period comeback started when he scored the club's first goal of the night. It was a beauty, too, as he skated the puck around the net before beating Penguins goalie Tristan Jarry top shelf with a backhander.
Point did not stop there, as he also scored the overtime winner to secure the Lightning two points. Point demonstrated great skill on this play, too, as he tucked it home from the corner of the net.
With his excellent performance, Point now has 10 goals, 15 points, and a plus-11 rating in 13 games this season. The 2014 third-round pick truly couldn't have had a better game in his return.
