The Lightning are one win away from lifting the Stanley Cup after beating the Stars 5-4 in overtime in Game 4 on Friday. Brayden Point scored twice in regulation and Kevin Shattenkirk scored on a power play in the overtime to seal the victory. Tyler Seguin's scoreless streak in this series is now 13 games.

The Stars are facing elimination for the first time since Game 7 against the Avalanche in the second round.

Anton Khudobin was sensational against Golden Knights in Western Conference final but he looked shaky in Game 4 against Tampa. Andrei Vasilevskiy has a better track record and is a future Vezina finalist.

The Lightning have won three straight games in the series. They are playing for the Stanley Cup on Saturday. The Stars are trying to extend the game but their goalie play is not good enough.
