The Tampa Bay Lightning made it two preseason victories in a row after handily defeating the Nashville Predators 3-1 at AMALIE Arena.

The outcome was secondary, however, to the return of Lightning forwards Steven Stamkos and Ryan Callahan.

The League's mid-season showcase will take place at AMALIE Arena on Saturday, January 27 and Sunday, January 28 and will include the NHL All-Star Skills Competition™ and the Honda NHL® All-Star Game, respectively.

Tampa Bay Lightning captain Steven Stamkos will take the ice in a live game situation for the first time in over 10 months when the Bolts host the Nashville Predators tonight at AMALIE Arena.
