Tampa Bay hopes to put an end to its season-worst six-game losing streak.
After jumping out to an early two-goal lead on Friday, the Lightning surrendered five unanswered tallies en route to dropping a 5-2 decision to the Atlanta Thrashers.
Vaclav Prospal and Ruslan Fedotenko tallied in the contest for Tampa Bay, which has not posted a win since edging the Thrashers, 3-2, on October 29.
