They bounced back from a four-game losing skid by winning three consecutive games, only to then lose four of their remaining five outings.
Tampa Bay’s streak was halted on the road as they lost 6-3 at the New York Rangers, 6-1 at the New York Islanders and 7-4 in Ottawa.
The Lightning then returned home to lose 4-3 to playoff opponents Toronto, but at least wrapped up the regular season on a positive note with a 5-0 shutout win over Detroit.

Toronto started the sequence at home as they rebounded from a 2-1 overtime loss to the Bruins with a 7-1 blowout of Montreal.
