Coach Barry Trotz took Braden Holtby out of the Tamba Bay Lightning game after Holtby allowed three goals on 12 shots. Philip Grubauer finished up, blocking all seven shots he faced. Trotz emphasized his decision was not a reflection on Holtby's play but rather to send a message to the skaters not to depend on their goalie so much. Message received.
