Can Lightning Strike Twice? Game 2 Set to Electrify Series
The Lightning are another team with recent postseason success. Tampa won multiple championships in the past few years, but now looks to regain that success. They ended the season 47-27-8 for the year and were great at home. On their home ice, they are 21 games above .500 (with 4 overtime losses in addition to outright losses). They are a very good offensive team scoring 3.56 goals per game on just 28 shots. The thing is that they don’t take that many more shots than their opponent. For Tampa, the expectation is that Andrei Vasilevskiy will be in the net. He put together a very strong season with a 38-20-5 record, allowing just 2.18 goals per game, and had a .921 save percentage. In other words, the Panthers are kind of firing at a wall this season.
