Nick Paul, Darren Raddysh and Pontus Holmberg each scored in the opening eight minutes to chase Jacob Markstrom, and the injury-depleted Tampa Bay Lightning defeated the New Jersey Devils 8-4.

Oliver Bjorkstrand scored two goals and set up another and Nikita Kucherov notched four assists, fueling the Tampa Bay Lightning to an 8-4 victory over the New Jersey Devils on Thursday in Newark, N.J.
