Game Story: In a loaded night of intermission discussion (with hashtag#NYR and Four Nations) it was the Tampa Bay Lightning (hashtag#GoBolts) that backed up the biggest talk with a dominant night. Kucherov had six points. The Calgary Sports and Entertainment Corporation (hashtag#Flames) penalty kill put up a bagel. Coverage here.

TB Outlook: 5-4-1 in last 10. All losses DAL, WSH, TOR, EDM to teams above playoff line. Will monitor if they lose to what they shouldn’t CGY, SEA, CBJ, STL prior to pre-Christmas back-to-back with FLA. Top WC1.

CGY Outlook: 2-4-2 since covering. Now just outside of playoff spot. Mostly two goals a game in this span. Got slapped by CBJ in the split, PIT and DAL giving up 17 goals in three games. Home cooking has been good (10-3-1) and it’s a five-game home stand TB, FLA, BOS, OTT, CHI before Christmas break off from (DEC 22-27), can goaltending rebound and the Flames hit a run. Eight of the next ten at Saddledome!
