Raw Charge, a Tampa Bay Lightning community

The Lightning are in Newark tonight to square off against the New Jersey Devils, but there are problems around the team that few people are focusing on. While lack of offensive production seems to be a oncern, it's the team's defense that is causing problems.

The Lightning have a glut of defensemen in the system and only so many roster spots to be filled. This is the second biggest competition point this preseason on the Lightning roster.
