Now that they have that locked up, they just need to continue to play well and keep the momentum going into the playoffs. They come into this game having won three in a row.
They have been on fire in the offensive zone during this winning streak.
In the last three games they have scored a combined 13 goals. In their last game they beat Florida by a score of 6-2. To win this game though it’s going to come down to the defensive zone.
The Lightning have also been scoring a ton of goals as of late, so they need to try and slow that down.
Tampa Bay Lightning
The Tampa Bay Lightning have reached a point in their season where every game is basically a must win.
They come into this game with 85 points which is three points behind Boston who is in the final wild card spot.
