The reigning Stanley Cup champs, Tampa Bay Lightning, are 5-1-1 and 4-0 at home and I don’t see them losing their first game at Amalie against the bottom feeding 2-6-2 Detroit Red Wings. Detroit is on a 6-game skid and they will win eventually, but not tonight. The Red Wings are 4-22 in the last 26 meetings with the Bolts and 6-21 in their last 27 in Tampa. Obviously the money line is high in this one, but barring a total meltdown by the Lightning, Tampa gets it done.
TONIGHT’S PICK: TAMPA BAY LIGHTNING
