According to FanDuel Sports Network Sun’s Gabby Shirley, we won’t find out very much about the 24-16-and-3 Tampa Bay Lightning’s lineup today as the team is not practicing.
Tampa is 2-1-and-1 in their last 4 games and 4-1-and-2 in their last 6, so the Red Wings do not head into Amalie Arena at an opportune time. The Bolts won a 4-3 shootout decision over the plucky Anaheim Ducks last night, with captain Victor Hedman hitting the 600-assist milestone.
Tampa Bay’s playing 16 games this month, so there’s a bit of mental fatigue going on within the team, but a full day’s worth of rest should help the Bolts recharge their batteries.
HAPPY FRIDAY, #BOLTS FANS !!
