Turns out, the Tampa Bay Lightning enjoys the evening air.
The Lightning stormed back from four goals behind to win a 6-5 game over Boston in an outdoor game held at Raymond James Stadium.
The Bolts fell behind 5-1 midway through the second period, but slowly came surving back to force it into overtime on Nikita Kucherov's 28nd goal of the year. The four-goal deficit was the largest the Lightning has made in franchise history.
Jake Guentzel scored the only shootout goal of the period for the winning goal.
Kucherov had four points, the goal and three assists. Also scoring were Brandon Hagel (11 seconds in, the fastest outdoors goal in history), Oliver Bjorkstrand, Darren Raddysh and Nick Paul. Bjorkstrand, Raddish and Paul all scored on the power play.
Goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy made 29 saves and was involved in a fight.
The Bolts are home against Buffalo Tuesday night at Benchmark International Arena.
