The Tampa Bay Lightning have been lighting up the NHL headlines as they are off to a 9-1-1 start to the season, and a franchise best six straight wins on home ice. This often sets the lines in their games well out of what should be reasonable, and Anaheim visits tonight and the Lightning now have a target on their backs. The Lightning don't appear to have the margin for error as the record would suggest as they have eked out 1 goal wins in 4 of those 6 home wins. The Ducks have certainly looked like a team looking ahead, as the last time they took the ice they suffered an 8-3 no-show set back, but the 2 previous games saw then win by a combined 8 goals. Dangerous spot for the Lightning here, make the play on Anaheim.
