The Tampa Bay Lightning return home tonight to Amalie Arena to host the struggling Columbus Blue Jackets. The Jackets, who lost 4 straight and 7 of their last 8, had better be in the zone because the Bolts are starting to heat up. Tampa has won 2 straight, 4 of their last 5, and they are 8-4-1 on their home ice. They have also won 7 of the last 10 meetings with Columbus and they can score. The Bolts are averaging 4 goals per game and that doesn’t bode well for a Jackets team that is allowing an average of 3.58 goals per game.
