Round 2: The All Weather Playoff Series between Tampa Bay Lightning and Carolina Hurricanes

Which weather phenomenon is better... Lightning or Hurricanes? That’s the question will be answered in Round Two of the NHL Playoffs as the Tampa Bay Lightning will take on the Carolina Hurricanes. The Lightning faced the Florida Panthers and the Hurricanes faced the Nashville Predators in the first round and both proved Weather > Cats.

Ok, time to get serious. That’s also my message to the Lightning. The Lightning played fairly mediocre hockey for most of the series against the Panthers. The team didn’t hold their own when it came to possession at 5v5 throughout the six games.
