Philadelphia at Tampa Bay

Philly has won five of six but they are off a loss and tonight must rely on their backup goaltender, Antero Niitymaki, making his first start. Last season he was 9-29-9, allowing 3.38 goals on average. He lost his last six starts. And, against Tampa Bay, he's 0-3-0 with a 4.37 GAA. Tampa Bay hasn't lost yet at home this season where they are winning on average by a score of 4.0 to 1.5. Philadelphia is just 44-81 the past three seasons vs. teams that score 2.9+ goals per game. We like Tampa Bay's shot here to win big.
