We’re back with the second installment of the Lightning’s 10-game report which covers the games from November 4th to the 22nd. The first thing to notice is that they played these 10 games a lot faster than they did the first 10. It took them 24 days to hit the 10-game mark, but only 19 more to hit the 20-game limit. For a team that relies on rhythm and skill like the Lightning, sometimes playing more consistently is better for them.
Was the win-loss record reflective of their play? Kind of. They went 5-3-2 during their latest stretch, and picking up points in 7 of the 10 games did allow them to stay in the playoff race.
