Tampa Bay at Philadelphia

Banged up Tampa Bay has a losing road record and is in a 6-13 slump. Tampa Bay is #22 in the NHL in goals allowed, #24 in penalty killing and has dropped eight of nine road games. The Lightning are having a tough time treading water waiting for Steven Stamkos to recover from a knee injury that is expected to keep him out until March. 22-year old Goalie Andrei Vasilevskiy, who was thrust into the starting role with Ben Bishop injured, surrendered all six goals against Nashville Thursday in a 6-1 defeat. Vasilevskiy is expected to get the start against the Flyers. Philadelphia is loaded on offense, eighth in goals scored, seventh on the power play. And the home team is 13-5 in the last 18 meetings. Play Philadelphia.
