We roll on with our ‘Adopt a Team’ series by taking a closer look at a Tampa Bay Lightning squad which needs to avoid taking this current window for winning for granted, and an Ottawa Senators team that hasn’t had their record reflect their level of play so far.

We also discuss the best and worst defensive pairings in the league, which teams are most likely to make a splash trade, and eventually unload on the Justin Abdelkader extension near the end of the show.
