Burns: 3 things from winning six in a row
When the Tampa Bay Lightning started their current six-game win streak in Edmonton a little less than two weeks ago, the Bolts were in danger of falling to seventh place in the Atlantic Division as Toronto nipped at their heels just three points behind.
Today, the Lightning wake up in a second-place tie with Detroit in the Atlantic and find themselves only three points back of Florida for the division lead.
Tampa Bay continued winning and climbing in the division standings with a solid 6-4 victory over that same Oilers team at Amalie Arena. The Lightning are suddenly the second-hottest team in the NHL with wins in six-straight games.
The hottest?
