Tampa Bay Lightning is one of the most irregular teams in the Eastern Conference, but despite that irregularity they’ve been able to keep within the playoffs’ spots after 22 played games. Nonetheless, next Saturday they’ll face such a difficult game against Toronto Maple Leafs at 06:00 pm CST, being necessary to remember that the Lightning played an away game against Nashville Predators just 1 day before this game.
In this regard, when looking at Tampa Bay Lightning overall performance, their offensive line has struggled during their most recent games, showing a huge duality from match to match. An example of this is the astonishing victory over Colorado Avalanche (8-2), which was expected to be a positive break point for them, but that followed with an immediate defeat against Washington Capitals as well as with a very even game against Nashville Predators, which is one of the worst teams in the Western Conference.
Meanwhile, Toronto Maple Leafs will play this game after 3 days of rest, which is expected to be a factor that play in their favor to recover after a very harmful loss against Florida Panthers (5-1). Even so, it must be noted that the Maple Leafs haven’t been able to score more than 3 goals in regulation time during their last 5 games, but they still were able to build a streak of 4 victories in a row due to their great defensive performance.
