Tampa Bay Lightning The Blue Jackets have won six of their last 10 played on home ice, but scoring remains a problem. The Lightning have been scoring much better than Columbus. Kucherov, Hagel, and ... ssisting options for Tampa Bay. Playing two straight nights and on the road are not ideal, but the Lightning will be hard to stop. Take the stronger attack of Tampa Bay to pick up a win on Thursday.

Ставка на класс и текущую форму атаки гостей. Тампа выиграла 4 из 5 последних матчей... Оборона хозяев (3.19 пропущенных за игру, 73.9% PK) вряд ли сдержит тройки Кучерова и Генцела.

Side With Lightning on the Moneyline The best wager could be taking the Lightning to simply beat the Blue Jackets. Our prediction can be taken at odds of -114 on the Moneyline which yields a potentially nice return.
