Tampa Bay put together a 46-30-6 regular season record to finish third in the Atlantic Division.
The Lighting had to settle for third after a rough run of form over the final few weeks of the regular season.
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 Maple Leafs Form
Toronto compiled a 50-21-11 record in the regular season to claim second place in the Atlantic Division.

They won each of their final four games of the regular season – a run that includes a win over postseason opponents, Tampa Bay.
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.
The Maple Leafs then went out on the road to beat Florida 2-1 in overtime, Tampa Bay 4-3 and the New York Rangers 3-2.
