Story Lines and Notes
Back when the schedule was first released last summer, this looked like it could be a pretty important game, in fact, it could have been for the top overall seed in the Eastern Conference. Instead, it’s as meaningless of a game as you can get in the NHL. The Lightning are locked into their playoff spot with the only question remaining as to when their series against the Florida Panthers will start.
