The Tampa Bay Lightning fell to the Nashville Predators in overtime tonight by the score of 3-2. It was the first preseason game for the Tampa Bay Lightning as the team took the ice in front of an energized Amalie Arena crowd. Though the team got off to a good start, costly mistakes and a surge by the Preds led to a OT loss.
The Lightning dominated the first 20 minutes of play. From the opening draw, the Bolts had full control of the puck and created opportunities in the offensive zone.
