NHL: Vancouver 2, Tampa Bay 1
Posted on: Saturday, 28 February 2009, 00:02 CST
Roberto Luongo allowed only a second-period goal and made 20 saves Friday night, pacing the Vancouver Canucks to a 2-1 triumph over Tampa Bay.
It was Tampa Bay's 11th all-time trip to Vancouver and the Lightning is still without a victory on the Canucks' home ice.
Alexander Edler scored on the power play for Vancouver in the first period and Steven Stamkos tied it with a wrist shot with 5:24 to go in the second. Steve Bernier produced the game-winner with 10:34 remaining in the third, tipping in a shot by Pavol Demitra.
Luongo bounced back from what turned out to be his only loss in February -- a 3-0 setback to Montreal Tuesday that broke an eight-game winning streak.
Tampa Bay's Karri Ramo, who has started six of the last seven games, stopped 23 shots.
