TAMPA (SNN-TV) – The Tampa Bay Lightning are back at home tonight welcoming the Panthers for a 7pm puck drop.
The Bolts are coming off of a back-to-back in which the team’s defensive weakness was certainly highlighted.
On Saturday, Tampa Bay posted a 3-0 shutout victory over the Detroit Red Wings thanks to the stellar play of Andrei Vasilevskiy. Tampa Bay fell apart at the seams on Sunday, however, as a quick trip to Pittsburgh saw the Penguins scorch the Lightning 7-3.
These two teams last played on February 6th, when the Panthers dominated in a 7-1 win over the Bolts.
