SUNRISE, Fla. — Martin St. Louis had a goal and two assists and the Tampa Bay Lightning extended their winning streak to five games with a 6-1 victory over the Florida Panthers on Monday. Valtteri Filppula had a goal and an assist and Victor Hed- man had three assists. J.T. Brown added two third-period goals for Tampa Bay. Alex Killorn and Tyler John- son also scored for the Lightning. Ben Bishop made 28 saves for his 20th victory of the season. Sean Bergenheim scored and Scott Clemmensen made 30 saves for Florida. St. Louis assisted on John- son’s tap-in goal off a wide shot off the boards by Hedman and added another on Filppula’s power-play goal less than five minutes later for a 3-1 Lightning lead in the second period. St. Louis scored his 16th goal of the season when his batted shot escaped Clemmensen for a 4-1 advantage after two periods. With the game tied 1-1 enter- ing the second period, Hedman took a pass in the left circle from St. Louis and sent a shot that went wide of Clemmensen. Johnson was in the right place and scored his ninth goal. Florida then took a pair of minor penalties 6:48 into the period — Tom Gilbert for hook- ing and the bench for too many men on the ice — that led to full two-minute 5-on-3 power play for the Lightning. In the slot, Filppula gathered a shot from Teddy Purcell that deflected off Marcel Goc’s stick and sent it past Clemmensen for his 13th goal.
