Lightning Strikes Philadelphia: Tampa Bay Eyes Victory at Flyers' Nest
As the Tampa Bay Lightning prepare to face off against the Philadelphia Flyers at the Wells Fargo Center, fans are eager to see if their team can continue its recent trend of success. The Lightning have been showcasing a strong performance in their past games, which bodes well for this upcoming clash.
In their last outing on home ice, the Lightning electrified the crowd with a 6-3 victory over the Colorado Avalanche. Their offense was firing on all cylinders, netting six goals from 39 shots – an impressive shooting percentage of fifteen percent. Faceoff wins were also a key factor; they won fifty-seven percent of draws and capitalized on two empty-net opportunities to seal their win.
The game prior saw them secure a hard-fought shootout win against the Boston Bruins after finishing regulation and overtime tied at two apiece. Despite being outshot, they managed to keep their composure and clinch victory through stellar goaltending – saving one hundred percent of shots faced during both shorthanded plays and in overtime.
Continuing this streak, Tampa Bay's visit to Columbus resulted in another win with four goals scored from thirty-seven shots (eleven percent shooting accuracy). Their powerplay unit found success twice during three opportunities, contributing significantly to their four-to-two triumph over the Blue Jackets.
These statistics suggest that Tampa Bay is finding ways to win whether through robust defense or by capitalizing on scoring chances. As they gear up for Philadelphia, maintaining these trends could be crucial in overcoming the Flyers on their own turf.
Fans can catch all the action as it unfolds live from Wells Fargo Center on February 28th. The game will be broadcast nationally via ESPN+ and locally on BSSUN channel 653 for those following from afar.
