Tampa Bay Lightning win first Stanley Cup in 2-1 Game 7
Ruslan Fedotenko scored both goals as Tampa Bay tops Calgary 2-1 in Game 7 at the St. Pete Times Forum to claim the franchise’s first Stanley Cup. Nikolai Khabibulin made key saves, Brad Richards earned the Conn Smythe, and captain Dave Andreychuk finally lifted the Cup after 22 seasons. Calgary, 11 road-win bid and first Canadian title since 1993, exits after a hard-fought final. The Cup ends a season shadowed by a looming lockout and a fragile postgame energy.
