Tampa Bay Lightning - Team
History & Information
During the offseason, the Lightning removed
the interim status of Rick
Tocchet, and decided to make him the full-time coach
with a multi-year contract. The
Lightning had an up and down beginning to the 2009-2010 campaign,
however Martin St. Louis and Vincent Lecavalier continued
to show strong leadership. Despite an overmatched roster
on paper, and a team that struggled in the first 2 periods
of many games, the Lightning have remained competitive in
the Eastern Conference race and are currently in contention
for a playoff spot in the 2010
Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Tampa Bay Lightning
- St. Pete Times Forum
The venue, located in Downtown Tampa's
Channelside District was a secondary location chosen
after the failure of Tampa Coliseum Inc. to secure funding
to construct an arena on Tampa Sports Authority land
near Tampa
Stadium. It opened in 1996 as the Ice Palace.
Its first event was a performance by the Royal
Hanneford Circus. The first hockey game was the
Lightning hosting the New
York Rangers, which the Lightning won by a score
of 5–2.
The arena was built as a new home for
the Lightning after the club outgrew the older, smaller
Expo Hall at the Florida
State Fairgrounds. Prior to the opening of the Ice
Palace, the Lightning moved to the Florida
Suncoast Dome, which was nicknamed the "Thunderdome," in
St. Petersburg, Florida, joining the Tampa Bay Storm,
in 1994.
Upon the completion of the Ice Palace, both the Lightning
and the Storm, moved in. The Thunderdome, now named Tropicana
Field, is currently home to Major
League Baseball's Tampa
Bay Rays.
