"It stinks not winning the shootout," Lightning coach Jon Cooper said after the sixth straight one-goal game between the Atlantic Division rivals. "You get greedy. Every time you go on one you want to win the thing but their goalie made some great saves. If you want to be in the conversation in March and April, you have to find a way to win the one-goal games and you have to find a way to win the third period."

"We did leave one [point] on the table and this is a team we are battling with in the division, so it makes tomorrow night all the more important," Cooper said." It will be tough for us with the quick turnaround. [The Rangers] are probably resting in the hotel right now. We will have to find a way."
