Here's a neat trivia question that you'll be able to use for at least a few more hours: What team holds the NHL's longest current win streak over another team?

Give up? It's your own Tampa Bay Lightning! They have beaten the Winnipeg Jets in the teams' last 11 meetings, outscoring the Jets by a score of 43-21 over that stretch. The Jets are coming to town on Saturday night, and the Lightning are hoping to continue their winning ways.

But of course, these are not the same Jets. These are the all-new, all-different Winnipeg Jets. New and improved. Nevertheless, Tampa Bay is trying to improve upon their 4-4-2 record, and we have all the information you'll need if you want to follow along at home.

The game will begin at 7:00 PM EST on Saturday night, and will be telecast on CBC and CW44.

The full 2011-2012 Lightning schedule can be found here.
