Lightning indeed struck twice.

Tampa Bay is your Stanley Cup champion for the second year in a row after taking care of the Montreal Canadiens in Game 5 at Amalie Arena, claiming a 1-0 win Wednesday night.

Ross Colton scored the lone goal of the game.

Andrei Vasilevskiy was named the Conn Smythe winner and is the first goalie to win the award since Jonathan Quick won it with the Los Angeles Kings in 2012.

This is the first time since the 2016 and 2017 Pittsburgh Penguins that a team has gone back-to-back.
