Arizona at Tampa Bay

The Tampa Bay Lightning are coming off their worst game of the year, falling to  Minnesota 7-2. They have been on the cusp of winning as despite a 3-2 record over their last five games, they have been out-scored by their opponent. Arizona has been playing very well on the defensive end over their last two games. The Coyotes have also started to add some physicality to their game, which should help them vs. Tampa Bay in this one. They earned a hard-fought 2-1 overtime win their last time on the ice, and should come into this game feeling pretty good about themselves. The Lightning have had a tough time responding to a big loss as they are now 5-12 in their last 17 following a setback of 3 goals or more. They are also just 3-9 in their last 12 in their first game back from a road trip of seven days or more. Play on Arizona.
