Tampa Bay at Florida

Tampa Bay is 10th in the NHL in goals allowed, and this is a good spot for their talented offense to bust out, facing a Florida defense that is 15th in goals allowed and 27th in penalty killing. These teams met Saturday in a wild, 5-4 Florida upset, but the Panthers are on a 2-6 run. The Lightning are 8-3 after allowing five goals or more in their previous game. Florida is 16-43 following a victory and has struggled badly against Tampa Bay. Tampa Bay is 14-2-2 in the last 18 overall meetings. Lightning goalie Ben Bishop made 19 saves Saturday to drop to 6-1-1 with a 2.17 goals-against average in eight starts against the Panthers. The Lightning are also 7-1 playing at Florida. Play Tampa Bay.
