The Lightning Are Coming Home

By: Philip Wunderlich

That’s right our boys are finally back in town! The Lightning have been playing well since they washed off the rust as they are on a two game win streak. They will be facing off against the Vegas Golden Knights tonight, a team that has lost their last four games.

 

Tampa Bay Outlook

The Bolts will have to not take their opponent lightly tonight despite their recent struggles and they have to get on the board quickly and early. This will not be an easy task as Marc-Andre Fleury has had a great year and could be a contender for the Vezina this season. The Lightning will have to play both sides of the puck well because this is one very quick team. The Lightning however have a fantastic goal tender as well as Vasilevskiy is back in net for the Bolts.

Vegas Outlook

The Knights are looking to change their game around because as mentioned before they are on a four game losing streak. One way to do that is to rely on their top performer, Alex Tuch. Tuch has been having an emerging season as he has put up 40 points in only 46 games. Vegas will also rely on strong play by Fleury who has had a fantastic season this far.
