The Tampa Bay Lightning had a heck of a weekend. Not only did they celebrate their first outdoor game, but they also picked up two vital points as they continue to chase down the Florida Panthers while holding off the Toronto Maple Leafs. It’s going to be a fun stretch run, ain’t it?
There will be a lot of hockey for the Bolts over the next two months, but they only face off against their two rivals a total of three times (Toronto twice, Florida once). The three games will all be in April with the April 24th game against the Panthers probably being of vital importance in the standings.
