Lightning 5, Flyers 2: A low blow on the road in Tampa

An angry Tampa Bay Lightning team is a scary team, and the Philadelphia Flyers learned that the hard way Tuesday night at Amalie Arena.

The Lightning entered their tilt against the Flyers fresh off their most embarrassing loss of the season — a 6-0 drubbing to the Carolina Hurricanes in Raleigh that extended their losing streak to five games. But in their return home following the rout, the Bolts weren’t about to let this Flyers team keep the skid going any further.

Predictably, the Flyers fell to the Bolts 5-2 for their 40th loss of the season.
