Bolts Head to Where the Stars at Night are Big and Bright
By: Philip Wunderlich
After losing to the Islanders the Bolts look to rebound as they head to Texas to face the Dallas Stars. The Stars are interesting team in the fact that they too only have one player over 40 points in Tyler Seguin but as a team they are currently in a playoff spot in the Central division.
Tampa Bay Outlook
The Bolts will need to shut down the Stars top line and play a great game both offensively and defensively if they want to win this one. They will not likely face former Bolt-netminder Ben Bishop but that doesn’t mean they can take a backup for granted.

Dallas Outlook
The Stars will need to be on top of their game tonight as they face the top team in the league. Khudobin will be in net so they will need to play great in front of him and limit the shots that the Bolts take against them. They also need to stay out of the box considering the Bolts are still top in the league on the power play.
