Victor Hedman played the role of hero for the Tampa Bay Lightning in Tuesday's win over the Ottawa Senators.
Having already earned a single point after pushing the game to overtime, the Lightning earned the all-important extra point thanks to their franchise defenseman, who continues to play the best hockey of his career.
With that OT goal, Victor Hedman records his 14th goal of season for new career high; now has highs in goals, assists and points this season

The goal was assisted by Ondrej Palat, who fed the puck between the Ottawa defensemen.
