The Tampa Bay Lightning’s current road trip is not going well, losing again last night to the Edmonton Oilers, 4-1, but I expect they will get back on track tonight when they visit the Vancouver Canucks. Tampa is playing back-to-back games which is always tough but they will have a well-rested Andrei Vasilevskiy between the pipes and that is a good thing. Vasilevskiy is 30-11-4 with a GAA of 2.43 and a 0.917 SV%. Tampa won the first meeting this year with Vancouver, 4-2, are 5-1 in the last 6 meetings overall, and 6-1 in their last 7 at Rogers Arena.
TONIGHT’S PICK: TAMPA BAY LIGHTNING
