Tampa Bay Lightning News & Notes
The Lightning have lost back-to-back games to divisional opponents and have slipped to the Boston Bruins in the standings. Boston, Tampa Bay, Ottawa, and Montreal are separated by TWO points in the standings. This next stretch will be crucial for the Lightning to keep pace in the standings.
Chicago Blackhawks News & Notes
The Blackhawks are 1-4 in their last five games, nothing out of expectations at this point. What is more intriguing for Chicago is their involvement in the J.T. Miller and Elias Pettersson sweepstakes. If the Blackhawks can land Pettersson, their expectations will significantly increase next season.
