Tonight at 10:00 p.m. ET, the Tampa Bay Lightning (23-12-4, 50 points) and Vancouver Canucks (23-11-7, 53 points) faceoff live from the Rogers Arena in Vancouver for the first of two meetings against each other this season. The game can be live streamed here. Tampa Bay fans can hear all of the action on WFLA 970 while Vancouver fans can do the same on TEAM 1040.

Tampa Bay starts a four-game road trip through Canada tonight while Vancouver surged to close out 2013 and will look to continue the trend into 2014.

The Canucks went 10-1-2 in December but lost their final game of the month 4-3 in a shootout to the Philadelphia Flyers.

"I like the way we are playing," forward Daniel Sedin told the Vancouver Sun after the loss Monday. "You can say we are not scoring enough, but we are winning games. I like the way we play, we play really solidly defensively. It's a good feeling in this room, we know we are not giving up a lot of chances and that's the way I think we have to play. Goals are going to come. We are finding ways to win. We didn't do it tonight but I think we have so far."

Sedin is tied for the team lead with 35 points off of 13 goals and 22 assists while his brother Henrik Sedin also has 35 points off of nine tallies and 26 helpers and Ryan Kesler has a team -leading 15 markers along with 12 tallies for 27 points.

The Lightning is looking to bounce back from a 4-3 defeat at the hands of the New York Rangers on Sunday..

"We have to get back to pushing the pace and keeping the puck moving forward," captain Martin St. Louis said via NHL.com. "We did that in the third period [against the Rangers] and gave ourselves a chance. It seems like since the break we've lost a little bit of our identity."

St. Louis leads the team with 38 points off of 17 goals and 21 assists while Valtteri Filppula has lit the lamp 14 times and added 16 helpers for 30 points and Tyler Johnson has found the twine 10 times and added 11 helpers for 21 points.

Ben Bishop is probable to get the start for the Lightning and is 20-5-3 with a 1.89 goals-against average and a .935 save percentage. Eddie Lack will start for the Canucks and is 7-2-1 with a 1.84 GAA and a .929 save percentage.

Both teams look to start 2014 out on a high note when the puck drops at the Rogers Arena tonight in Vancouver
