Winnipeg has a winning record both home and away. They are a big dog to a banged-up Tampa Bay team home from a loss at a division rival. The Lightning return home looking to bounce back after a 3-2 shootout loss at Boston on Thursday. The Lightning are playing their second game since losing three key pieces in Ondrej Palat (lower body), Braydon Coburn (lower body) and Cedric Paquette (upper body). Palat and Paquette are expected to miss around two weeks, while Coburn is out at least a month. Winnipeg is also hungry for a win and matches up well with the ailing home team. Play Winnipeg.
