Does anyone remember when the Flyers beat the Lightning—in Tampa—earlier this year? That wasn’t a mirage, right?
Well, here’s another opportunity to do the same. The Lightning’s playoff position remains safe (barring an insane run by the Ottawa Senators which, hey, who knows, though that 5-0 loss to Chicago last night’s a bad look), and nobody will believe they’ve lost their touch until they see it. Still, letting up 4+ goals in five consecutive games, and getting absolutely taken apart in a 6-0 loss to the Carolina Hurricanes on Sunday is not how you want to start the last month before the playoffs.
