Tampa Bay Lightning 1997-1998 Season Schedule & Scores

Overall record:	17-52-3
Home record:	11-21-2
Away record:	6-31-1

The Tampa Bay Lightning had one of the worst seasons in franchise history in 1997-98, finishing with the fewest points in the NHL and only avoiding the worst overall record due to a better goal differential than the Vancouver Canucks. Despite the poor record, the Lightning still managed to win 11 games at home, which was more than they won on the road all season.
