"Florida played a near-perfect road game on Saturday, blanking the Dallas Stars by a 4-0 count to sweep the season series from the NHL's second-best team. Brad Marchand scored two goals and added an assist, Anton Lundell opened the scoring and set up Marchand's empty-netter, Sam Bennett notched his tenth goal and Sam Reinhart finished with two helpers. Sergei Bobrovsky is up to threes shutouts this season after stopping all 15 shots."
"After closing out November on a seven-game winning streak, the Lightning have cooled off a bit, dropping four of their last six. Tampa Bay earned a point in its last outing, a 3-2 shootout loss to the New York Islanders on Saturday, which ended a four-game roadie. After tonight's game against the Cats, the Bolts will host Los Angeles, Carolina and St. Louis before the teams meet again in Sunrise on December 27."
