Andrei Vasilevskiy had his shutout streak ended at 228:09 when the Tampa Bay Lightning goalie allowed a shorthanded goal in the second period against the Chicago Blackhawks on Thursday.
Ryan Caprenter scored at 7:24 to deny Vasilevskiy a fourth straight shutout.
Vasilevskiy broke the Lightning record of 202:46, which was set by John Grahame in 2005-06.
Mid-January feels like ages ago.
The Chicago Blackhawks have not seen the Tampa Bay Lightning since the first two games of the season back on January 13th (5-1 loss) and 15th (5-2 loss). The Lightning have been exactly as expected this season, playing some of the best hockey in the league while leading a modified Central Division. The Blackhawks, however, have grown by leaps and bounds since the opening series of the season. Sitting fourth in the Central Division on points (28) and points percentage (.609), the Blackhawks are a different team than the Lightning faced at the beginning of the year.
