DALLAS (AP) — Andrei Vasilevskiy stopped 28 shots for his third consecutive shutout, extending his scoreless streak to 200 minutes, and the Stanley Cup champion Tampa Bay Lightning beat the Dallas Stars 2-0. Vasilevskiy also held the struggling Stars without a goal four days earlier at home, a 5-0 win in the first meeting this season between the teams that played in the Stanley Cup Final in the NHL bubble last September. The three straight shutouts are a career best for Vasilevskiy. His streak of 10-plus scoreless periods is the longest in the NHL this season. Just as they did Saturday, the Lightning went ahead to stay on a power-play goal in the first period by Ondrej Palat.
