Streaking Lightning host Stars

Feb 27, 2007 - 4:34 PM Dallas (37-21-3) at Tampa Bay (36-25-3) 7:30 pm EST

TAMPA, Florida (Ticker) -- Thanks to Martin St. Louis and Vincent Lecavalier, the Tampa Bay Lightning keep rolling.

The two aim to remain hot when the Lightning host the Dallas Stars on Tuesday.

Tampa Bay is 6-1-1 in its last eight games and leads the Atlanta Thrashers by three points in the Southeast Division.

Lecavalier has a league-leading 43 goals. The center has seven goals and seven assists in his eight-game points streak. He scored a shorthanded goal in a 5-1 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins last Sunday.

St. Louis had a goal and an assist against Pittsburgh, and has 38 goals, the second-most in the league. The right wing has six goals and seven assists in his eight-game points streak.

The Stars are 11-3-2 in their last 16 games after a 2-1 overtime win over the Vancouver Canucks on Sunday.

Defenseman Philippe Boucher's goal with 29 seconds left forced overtime. Jere Lehtinen scored the game-winner at 4:17 of the extra session.

Goaltender Marty Turco stopped 17-of-18 shots. He improved to 2-0-1 in his last three starts with just four goals allowed.
