The Lightning Evening News: A spin around the division |
It feels like the Tampa Bay Lightning haven't spent much time playing teams within their own division. Of course, considering the Lightning are currently 0-3 in their division, maybe that's not a good thing. Two of those losses have come against the Maple Leafs (which is doubly annoying) and the third came early in the season against Ottawa. With a few games coming up against some familiar rivals, how about we take a spin around the Atlantic and see what's going on with the other teams. |

(AP Photo/Chris O'Meara) Author: Associated Press Published: 8:52 AM CST December 20, 2024 Updated: 8:52 AM CST December 20, 2024 TAMPA, Fla. — Nikita Kucherov had a pair of assists to lead the Tampa Bay Lightning to a 3-1 victory against the St. Louis Blues on Thursday night.

Lightning's Guentzel Reaches 18 Goals in 29 Games, Extends Scoring Streak to Seven Games |
After coming to Tampa Bay in the June 2024 trade, Jake Guentzel has been on fire. His seven-game scoring run moves closer to the team record, racking up 18 goals in just 29 games. The talented winger is scoring at a pace that could beat his personal best of 40 goals in a season. No NHL player since Ovechkin in 2005-06 has matched this kind of scoring start after joining a new team. During this red-hot seven-game stretch, the 29-year-old has netted nine goals while picking up 12 points. His biggest performance came in Calgary on Dec. 12, when he scored three times for a hat trick. Numbers show his effectiveness, nine goals from prime scoring areas put him among the NHL's best forwards in both |

The Backcheck: Youngsters key as Lightning beat Blues to extend winning streak to five games |
A pair of key plays by Tampa Bay Lightning rookies combined with a rough-and-tumble, tight-checking defensive performance allowed Tampa Bay to extend its winning streak to a season-best four games on Thursday night against the St. Louis Blues. Lightning fans at AMALIE Arena were treated to yet another fast start on Thursday with the help of rookie Conor Geekie. Linemate Brandon Hagel gained the offensive zone before dropping a pass to the 20-year-old forward on the left side of the blueline, and Geekie zipped a pass to a flying Anthony Cirelli in the slot. |

Kucherov runs point streak to 9, Lightning defeat Blues |
“We definitely had some looks and sustained O-zone time,” Schenn said, “but facing good goalies and good teams, we have to find a way to get inside more and get the greasy ones around the net, especially when goals aren't coming in bunches for us right now.” Goncalves scored at 13:33 for the 3-1 final, putting a wrist shot from the left face-off circle inside the far post and chasing Binnington. “I just saw 'Kuch' coming down the middle of the ice and I was trying to be a good option for him,” Goncalves said. NOTES: Tampa Bay forward Brayden Point had an assist on Perbix's goal to extend his point streak to seven games (17 points; five goals, 12 assists). |

Lightning defenseman J.J. Moser to be out for 8 to 10 weeks |
J.J. Moser will miss at least two months of action after sustaining a lower-body injury against the Calgary Flames. While the 24-year-old only has 10 points, he is much more of a defensive defenseman tallying a +13 plus/minus rating. |

Blues playing better under Jim Montgomery, take on Lightning |
Eleven games into the tenure of new coach Jim Montgomery, the St. Louis Blues appear to have solidified their footing and found their game. The Blues and their new coach will embark on a three-game road trip, starting with Thursday night's game against the Tampa Bay Lightning. After opening the season with a 9-12-1 record under coach Drew Bannister, St. Louis fired the former Lightning defenseman on Nov. 24. The Blues turned to Montgomery, who was dismissed by the Boston Bruins after a pair of early playoff exits -- despite him winning the Jack Adams Award as the NHL's top coach in the 2022-23 season. |
