The Tampa Bay Lightning are in a funk, losing 2 straight and 4 of their last 5, but 3 of their 4 losses were on the road. Tonight they will be on their home ice to take on the Los Angeles Kings. At Amalie Arena, the Lightning are an impressive 15-7-1 and they will be playing a Kings team that is also slumping. LA will be playing back-to-back games after falling to the Florida Panthers last night, 3-0, have now lost 3 straight and 5 of their last 6. Tampa is always worth considering when at home.
TONIGHT’S PICK: TAMPA BAY LIGHTNING
