One of the NHL teams that will return to activity next Sunday will be Tampa Bay Lightning, which will host a game that has them as the absolute favorites to win against Seattle Kraken. However, the Lightning cannot be overconfident of getting an easy win because the Kraken were already able to win a very difficult game against Florida Panthers last Saturday night (1-2).

Nevertheless, it’s also worth noting that Tampa Bay Lightning remains as the second-best offensive line in the Eastern Conference with 197 goals scored this season, a big number that allowed them to win their last 4 games in a row, in which they scored 4 or more goals per game. In this matter, Nikita Kucherov has converted into a key player, not only because he has been able to score 25 goals this season, but most importantly because he has provided 57 assists.

On Seattle Kraken’s case, even when they’ve a streak of 2 victories in a row, there’s still a big gap of 9 points between them and the playoffs mark in the Western Conference. With that in mind, the real chances that this team has of competing for a qualification spot for the final instances of this tournament are very low, but it’s notable that they currently have a better offensive performance than some teams like Vancouver Canucks and Los Angeles Kings.
