The 2010–11 Tampa Bay Lightning season was the 19th season for the Lightning franchise of the National Hockey League (NHL). For the first time since the 2006–07 season, the Lightning qualified for the playoffs.

Pre-season

On May 25, 2010, the Lightning announced Hall of Fame player and former Detroit Red Wings executive Steve Yzerman as their new general manager. He hired Guy Boucher, coach of the American Hockey League (AHL)'s Hamilton Bulldogs, as the new head coach on June 9, 2010.^[1]

Regular season

In October, the Lightning compiled a 7–2–1 record and with 15 points, leading not only the Southeast Division, but also the entire Eastern Conference. This was the first time the Lightning had ever led the East after the first month of the season.^[2] Steven Stamkos was named one of the League's Three Stars for the month of October, with Stamkos himself coming away with the honor of First Star. Stamkos led the League with 19 points, scoring nine goals and assisting on ten, and was tied for the second-best plus-minus rating at +9.^[3]

The Lightning's record started to slide in November, as they earned only three points in their first seven games of the month. On November 11, Vincent Lecavalier suffered a fracture to his right hand. He underwent surgery on November 15 and was placed on the injured reserve list, expected to miss four-to-five weeks.^[4] He would ultimately return one month later on December 15, having missed 15 games. Despite losing their captain, the Lightning were able to win six of the month's final nine games, a stretch that included a streak of five consecutive wins. With a 14–8–3 record and 31 points, the Lightning fell to second place in the Division and fifth in the Conference.

On January 1, 2011, Nate Thompson scored just 19 seconds into the overtime period to give the Lightning a 2–1 home win over the New York Islanders.^[5] It would prove to be the fastest overtime goal scored during the 2010–11 regular season.^[6]

The Lightning scored the fewest shorthanded goals in the League, with just one, and allowed the most shorthanded goals in the League, with 16.^[7]

Playoffs

After defeating the Pittsburgh Penguins 2–1 on March 31, the Lightning clinched a playoff spot for the first time since the 2006–07 season. They defeated the Penguins in the first round 4-3 & swept the top-seeded Washington Capitals in the second round 4-0. However, the Lightning lost in the conference final to the Boston Bruins 4-3.
