The NHL trade deadline is only a day away, and the Tampa Bay Lightning have yet to make any type of moves to change the roster. Now that the Bolts have struggled to return to the dominant form they displayed prior to the Olympic break, coupled with the recent injuries to Dominic James and Gage Goncalves, should Tampa prioritize adding a player? Andre Vasilevskiy and Nikita Kucherov have not quite looked like themselves after the three week Olympic rest, and the Bolts need them to find their game again if they want to push for a Stanley Cup. Can tonight’s game jumpstart these two key players and revitalize them the Tampa Bay Lightning? The Lightning take on the Winnipeg Jets tonight at 8pm EST, where they need to find a way to solve an elite goaltender and pick up a win to break the current three game losing streak.

The Tampa Bay Lightning dropped a third straight game last night to the Minnesota Wild by a score of 5-1. What happened to the Bolts in this game?

Is there cause for concern or panic surrounding the hall of fame goaltender? Nick and Greg dive into the recent Lightning struggles and what needs to be done in order to get back on track and return to the dominant team they’d been before the 3 week break.

The Tampa Bay Lightning returned to action last night against the Toronto Maple Leafs, where they played a strong game to defeat the divisional rival, 4-2. The Bolts showed almost no signs of rust after three weeks of rest during the Olympics. Nikita Kucherov and Brayden Point both looked unstoppable in this game.

The Lightning travel to Raleigh, North Carolina tonight, where they face a dominant Carolina Hurricanes team who seems to be arguably the biggest threat in the east after the Lightning. Can the Bolts keep up this marvelous play and topple the juggernaut on the road in a back to back?
