Who will WIN this matchup?
Tampa Bay Lightning (14-11-1)
@ Carolina Hurricanes (9-10-5)
Starting Goalies:
Andrei Vasilevskiy(TB): Unconfirmed
Cam Ward (CAR): Unconfirmed
• The Tampa Bay Lightning got the important result needed to change their course and attempt to build on it less than 24 hours later, when they visit the Carolina Hurricanes on Sunday. The Lightning snapped a season-high four-game losing streak with a solid effort at both ends of the ice Saturday in a 2-1 shootout victory over Washington.
• Meanwhile, the Hurricanes have followed a five-game winning streak with a 1-4-1 stretch after Saturday’s 4-2 road loss to the New York Rangers – scoring fewer than three goals for the sixth time in seven contests.
• The Lightning surrendered 19 goals during their losing streak but got 34 saves from Ben Bishop while Nikita Kucherov recorded his team-leading 13th goal and 29th point with a power-play tally in the second period. Top-four defenseman Jason Garrison missed the game due to a lower-body injury while fellow blue-liners Slater Koekkoek and Luke Witkowski re-entered the lineup.
• Skinner matched rookie Sebastian Aho for the team lead with four shots against the Rangers but could not add to his team-leading total of 20 points while registering a minus-2 rating. Cam Ward, who was rested Saturday, likely will be back in net to try and snap a four-game winless streak (0-3-1) during which he has allowed a total of only eight goals. Defenseman Justin Faulk scored eight power-play goals through 20 games last season but has been held to one after 21 contests in 2016-17.
• The Lightning have won eight of the last nine meetings, including both matchups in Carolina last season.
