The Tampa Bay Lightning are playing at a level above all others and Dallas bore witness to that Saturday night when the Lightning blanked them 5-0 at Amalie Arena. Tonight they will meet again but the venue will switch to the Stars’ home ice, American Airlines Center. The Lightning are on a 4-game run, outscoring their opponents 15-3 during that span. Now if that’s not domination, what is? Dallas has struggled all year with a record of 6-6-2-2, are just 1-8 in their last 9, and will have their work cut out for them tonight. Tampa is not only hot, they have the #1 offense in the league as well as defense, and the Bolts are 5-1 in their last 6 in Dallas.
TONIGHT’S PICK: TAMPA BAY LIGHTNING
