Instead, you will remember this one for Steven Stamkos, the NHL's newest 1,000-point man.
Stamkos got the second assist on Paul's second goal to pass the milestone. He has 494 goals and 506 assists. No other Lightning player has scored 1,000 points all ia Lightning uniform.
"One thousand points," marveled head coach Jon Cooper. "Come on. That's a lot of points. It's impressive.
“It’s longevity. You don’t get it playing 200 games. You’ve got to play a lot of games to get that. That kid’s ' got more milestones to come this year. He’s deserved it. I’m fortunate to have a front row seat for probably three-quarters of those."
It wasn't lost on Stamkos that the 1,000th point came on a second assist.

"It was on a second assist. The most I've celebrated a second assist in my career.
The Bolts had one of their easier wins of the season, dominating the play in the offensive zone.
