If something is to change for the Toronto Maple Leafs, it will have to happen on home ice.

The Tampa Bay Lightning kept their remarkable run of resiliency alive, forcing Game 7 in their first-round series versus the Maple Leafs with a 4-3 overtime victory Thursday night at Amalie Arena.

Brayden Point scored the series-extending goal in the waning moments of the first overtime period to complete Tampa’s comeback, banging in a rebound as the Lightning closed in on Jack Campbell in transition.

More to come.
