The Tampa Bay Lightning dropped Game 3 against the Florida Panthers on Thursday night, despite an explosive third period where they scored five goals. The Lightning’s performance wasn’t necessarily bad, but their inconsistent play uncovered some of their weak sides, which the Lightning’s coaching staff needs to adjust to prevent a possible Florida comeback.

The Lightning are still struggling to mantain possession at 5-on-5. The expected goal share has dropped from 44.
