Don't look now, but two of the hottest teams in the Atlantic Division are meeting on Sunday night. That's right, the Boston Bruins and Tampa Bay Lightning are two of the hottest teams in the division. Who would have thought that a month ago? Maybe Tampa Bay, but Boston?
That's where we are. The Lightning are leading the division, sitting on top of the division with 72 points, and the Black and Gold are five back with 67. Boston currently holds the second and final Eastern Conference wild-card spot. There is still a long way to go after the Olympic Break before considering Boston a postseason team this year.
