NOTES:
Whatever ailed the Hawks in their last outing across the state of Florida, they had better get over it quickly. The Lightning has been playing more of late like the tough foe the Hawks faced in the 2015 Cup Finals, than the enigmatic underachievers of the last year or so.
I’ll recap tomorrow.
