Join in on the action as these two competitive teams battle it out on the ice in what promises to be an exciting matchup. In Game 1 of this series, the Panthers came away with a 3-2 win at home that gave them a 1-0 series lead. While the game was close on the scoreboard for the majority, the Panthers defense made it feel like it was much more lopsided. Florida held Tampa Bay under 20 total shots as a team in that series opening game, with the Lightning not getting their second goal of the contest until there were about 10 seconds remaining in regulation. In Lightning vs Panthers Game 2, we expect more of the same from the Florida Panthers as they should take a 2-0 series lead. Tampa came into this series with a losing road record for the year. We should see more struggles for the Lightning away from home in this in-state rivalry game on Tuesday night. We will take the Panthers to win this one and to put the Lightning into a precarious position as the series shifts to Tampa for the first time for Game 3.
