Coming into Saturday night’s game against the Nashville Predators, the Tampa Bay Lightning were riding a two-game losing streak. The big question entering this game was if the Lightning could get past a Predators team that has had their number over the past few years. Behind a four-goal outburst in the second period the Lightning managed to get back into the win column with a 4-3 victory over the Predators.
The schedule delays haven’t been kind to the Lightning, breaking up any semblance of routine for the coaching staff and players. Still, sitting at 4-1-1 isn’t a bad spot to be in given the circumstances.
