TAMPA, Fla. — The Lightning talked about their showing in Saturday’s Stadium Series game being a momentum-builder as they enter a difficult final stretch of the regular season.
The game in front of nearly 69,000 fans had a playoff feel, and the Lightning’s top players stepped up in a national spotlight.
Returning home to Amalie Arena might have felt like a bit of a letdown after all the excitement in Nashville. But starting a stretch of 31 games in 60 days to finish out the season, the Lightning had no time to dwell on the past.
