The LA Kings, following up on a shut out drubbing to the Atlanta Thrashers, head to Tampa to take on the Lightning. Will Martin St. Louis find the net again? Will Anze Kopitar add to his league leading 30 points?
The Tampa Bay Lightning played the Minnesota Wild to yet another shootout. Did they finally win one?
Pretty impressive for the ol' bugger, who played almost 21 minutes against the Lightning despite the fact he's off to a pretty slow start this season. That one, however, gives him two in two...
Minnesota Wild 3-4(so) Tampa Bay Lightning: The Wild couldn't finish the job, as 2 3rd period goals for Tampa Bay send the game to OT and Steven Stamkos gets the shootout winner.
Tampa Bay starts a two game home stand... The first two games in a busy month-and-a-half span.
