Lowly Lightning look to stay hot on the road

Feb 5, 2008 - 2:27 PM Tampa Bay (21-27-5) at St. Louis (24-20-7) 8:30 pm EST

ST. LOUIS (Ticker) -- Surprisingly, the Tampa Bay Lightning have been on fire on the road recently.

The Lightning go for their fifth straight away from St. Pete Times Forum on Tuesday when they visit the St. Louis Blues.

Tampa Bay is just 7-14-3 on the road, the fewest wins away from home in the league.

However, the Lightning - the worst team in the Eastern Conference with just 47 points this season - have lost three of their last four games, including a 3-2 setback to the Florida Panthers on Saturday.

St. Louis has struggled of late as well, losing eight of its last 10 games. The Blues are coming off a 6-4 setback to the Colorado Avalanche on Saturday.

Keith Tkachuk was one of four Blues to score a goal against the Avalanche, notching his third goal in his last three contests in the third period. Tkachuk has 16 goals and 22 assists this season and has 11 tallies and 13 assists in 23 career games against the Lightning.
