Tampa Bay at Chicago

Tampa Bay has won six of seven, is one point behind Florida for first place in the Atlantic Division, and the Lightning come off a 3-1 win over Detroit with backup goalie Brian Elliott getting the win while stopping 22 shots. Andrei Vasilevskiy is expected back in net tonight, and he boasts a 29-9-2-2 record and a 2.32 goals-against average. He had a four-game win streak snapped in a 5-1 loss to Pittsburgh on Thursday night, and it was the first time he allowed more than three goals in nine appearances. Chicago has lost five of its last seven, and it has gone OVER in five of those games, including a 4-3 loss to Philadelphia on Saturday. Tampa Bay has won seven of the last eight meetings, although this is the first one this season. The Lightning are 7-2 OVER in their last nine road games and 11-4-3 OVER versus the Central Division. Go with the Lightning for a Max Play and also back the OVER.
