Devils and Lightning Clash at Amalie Arena in High-Voltage Matchup

As the New Jersey Devils prepare to face off against the Tampa Bay Lightning at Amalie Arena, fans are eager to see if the Devils can continue their recent trend of high-scoring games. The Devils have shown a strong offensive presence in their past few outings, notably scoring six goals against both Vancouver and Washington Capitals, while conceding four and three goals respectively. This indicates a potent attack that could pose a significant threat to the Lightning's defense.

The Devils' performance on special teams will be crucial in this matchup. Their powerplay opportunities have been plentiful but with mixed results; they failed to capitalize on any during their game against Vancouver but showed improvement by scoring once against Washington. Maintaining discipline will be key as well, as they've managed to keep penalty minutes low across these games.

Defensively, the Devils have been solid with goaltending standing out as a reliable backbone for the team. The save percentage has consistently been at 100 percent across recent matches, which speaks volumes about their goalies' performances under pressure.

Faceoffs are another area where New Jersey has excelled lately, winning over half of their draws in each game. This control over puck possession could give them an edge over Tampa Bay if they maintain this trend.

However, it's worth noting that while the offense is firing on all cylinders, there is room for tightening up defensively as evidenced by the number of goals conceded recently. The balance between aggressive play and defensive responsibility will likely determine how well they fare against Tampa Bay.

Fans can catch all the action from this exciting encounter on January 12th via various broadcast networks including ESPN+ online nationally or BSSUN TV locally for Tampa and MSGSN TV for away fans following New Jersey. Puck drop is scheduled at Amalie Arena in Tampa, Florida – an arena known for its electrifying atmosphere which could influence game dynamics significantly.
