Game Preview

Tampa Bay will begin its quest for a fourth Stanley Cup on Tuesday by hosting the Nashville Predators, but the Lightning will do it under decidedly unfamiliar circumstances.

Coach Jon Cooper’s group will be without star goaltender Andrei Vasilevskiy for at least the first two months after the 2019 Vezina Trophy winner underwent back surgery in late September.

That predicament — playing perhaps one-third of the season’s games without one of the NHL’s premier backstops — adds pressure to not let the campaign slip away before 2024 arrives.
