The Tampa Bay Lightning charge into the Pepsi Center in Denver in the hopes of extending their recent win streak against the Colorado Avalanche.
The Tampa Bay Lightning had a pretty successful weekend on the road. For the second time this season, the Tampa Bay Lightning were successful in both of their games in a back-to-back series. This dates all the way back to December 14-15, 2015. Unfortunately, the Tampa Bay Lightning didn’t have much time to celebrate their recent success.
Tonight, the Tampa Bay Lightning charge into the Pepsi Center in Denver to take on captain Gabriel Landeskog and the Colorado Avalanche. While these two teams have quite a few similarities, it is their differences that could spell disaster for the Tampa Bay Lightning and their hopes of creating a successful win streak of more than two games.
As most people in the Bolts Nation are painfully aware by now, the Tampa Bay Lightning has had more than average issues on special teams this season. Right now, the Colorado Avalanche are ranked fifth in the National Hockey League in terms of the Power Play. The Tampa Bay Lightning will definitely need to be cautious with the penalties they take. An ill-advised and badly timed penalty could open the door to disaster.
Now that the Tampa Bay Lightning is finally getting back a number of the players who have been plagued by injuries this season, the team has managed to relocate some of the chemistry Tampa Bay Lightning fans have come to expect from their young and talented team. We don’t know about you, but we here at Bolts By The Bay are anxious to see what the Tampa Bay Lightning has in store for us tonight in Denver.
