However, the Bolts beat Nashville, 3-2 in overtime, to win their sixth game of the season.
Nick Paul scored at 3:22 of the extra period to lift the Bolts to their win.
The Lightning had built a 2-0 lead, but Nashville railed in the second period to tie.
Brayden Point and Mitchell Chaffee scored in the first period for Tampa Bay.
Andrei Vasilevskiy stopped 35 of 37 shots to get his fifth win.
Tampa Bay plays at Colorado on Wednesday night.
