The Tampa Bay Lightning are on a ten day break as their bye week flows directly into the NHL All Star break. Fortunately for me, the break coincides perfectly with the Bolts’ fiftieth game of the season. That means we can do another ten game report.
For those unfamiliar, every ten games we take a snapshot of the Lightning’s play to see how the season is going. To do this, we use a series of key metrics to measure the play of the team as a whole, the skaters, and the goalies. All data for the teams and skaters comes from Corsica and is adjusted for score, venue (home/away) and zone starts (skaters only).
