I learned something new today, guys. The Tampa Bay Lightning have the worst record in the Eastern Conference. Well, technically two other teams have the same point total, but they've got games in hand. So, yeah, it's the Lightning. How in the hell did that happen? Steven Stamkos is hurt again, but the Lightning have been very successful in long stretches without 91. Goalie Ben Bishop's numbers have taken a dip this year, but I don't know if I'd call it a catastrophic drop-off. Guys like Kucherov, Hedman, and Drouin have decent point totals and it doesn't look like the team's possession numbers have gone off a cliff, either. Maybe it's the grind of two deep postseason runs finally catching up? I have no idea. Anyway, that's who the Hawks play tonight. And if the Hawks want to stay within striking distance of the Wild for home ice in the playoffs, these are the games they have to win.
LET'S GO HAWKS!!
