The Lightning will take a couple of days to rest following a 12-day cross-continent trip to recollect themselves and get ready for Saturday's home opener, one of our five must-see games at the Forum this season:

Saturday vs. Carolina: No. 1 draft pick Steven Stamkos makes his home debut.

Oct. 25 vs. San Jose: Traded to the Sharks in the offseason, defenseman Dan Boyle, a key member of the 2004 championship team, makes his return to Tampa.

Nov. 13 vs. Detroit: The Red Wings are always a big draw and coming off a Stanley Cup championship makes it that much more of a tough ticket.

Jan. 13 vs. Philadelphia: This will be Tampa Bay's first game back following a five-game road trip that includes four games on the West Coast.

Jan. 19 vs. Dallas: The return of Brad Richards, who was dealt in a five-player swap at the trade deadline last year. He won the Conn Smythe trophy as playoff MVP in 2004.
