Picking up from where they left off last Saturday, the Lightning snap a two-game skid to secure home ice for the first round of the NHL Playoffs.
For the third consecutive season, Tampa Bay has finished second placed in the Atlantic Division. The Lightning improved to 97 points on the season with their 4-2 win over the New Jersey Devils at the Prudential Center Thursday night.
The win also guarantees home ice in the first round of the postseason, which will be played against either Boston or Detroit.
Previously riding a two-game losing streak, Thursday night's win was a pick-me-up for the injury stricken Bolts who made recent call ups for Jonathan Drouin and Matt Taormina from Syracuse to aid a lacking roster.
