Lightning Round: Looking forward to the second half

Hang in there Lightning fans. We’re almost halfway through the bye week. Monday is right around the corner and the Bolts will be back on the ice against Dallas before you know it. The All Star break marks the unofficial halfway mark of the season (the Lightning have played 48 games so they are well past the actual midpoint).

With a strong run of play the Lightning have narrowed the deficit to eight points (with three games in hand). They do have two head-to-head matches in the beginning of March which could be key to deciding who is going to win the division.
