Radio broadcaster Dave Mishkin recaps Tampa Bay's loss to Vancouver on Sunday A very disappointing loss for the Lightning. Not just because they started so well and could have put the game out of reach. But it was especially disappointing because they allowed their play to dip so substantially.
Although the Canucks travel to Tampa riding a lacklustre three-game losing skid, two of those losses have come via overtime, and the other was a narrow two-goal loss to the Jets. They've covered the spread in three of the last four games.
