TAMPA, Fla. -- Tyler Johnson had three goals, Jake Dotchin scored a tiebreaking goal midway through the third period, and the Tampa Bay Lightning beat the Carolina Hurricanes 5-4 on Tuesday night.

Tampa Bay also got a goal from Victor Hedman, and Brayden Point had three assists. Andrei Vasilevskiy made 28 saves.

Justin Faulk, Elias Lindholm, Brock McGinn and Sebastian Aho scored for the Hurricanes. Cam Ward stopped 29 shots.

Dotchin got his first goal in 14 games to make it 4-3 at 9:27 of the third before Johnson completed his hat trick and give Tampa Bay a two-goal advantage after stealing the puck from Noah Hanifin and scoring from just outside the crease at 14:54.

Lindholm scored with 1:18 left to cut it to 5-4.

After Johnson's rebound backhand went into the net off Faulk's skate at 1:58 of the second, Faulk tied it at 3 with 9:24 left in the period on Carolina's second power-play goal.

The Hurricanes twice took one-goal leads, on goals by McGinn and Aho, in the first but the period ended at 2-all due to goals by Hedman and Johnson.

Aho was in the lineup three days after leaving Saturday's 7-1 loss at Boston following a scary looking leg injury.

Chris Kunitz appeared to put Tampa Bay up 4-3 early in the third, but the goal was disallowed following a video replay determined the play was offside.
