The Tampa Bay Lightning travel to Colorado to face the Avalanche Thursday night in both teams' first game back after the All-Star break.
The Lightning have won 7 of 9 and scored 35 goals in that stretch, almost 4 goals per game. The Lightning are 14-6-2 away, and are 2-4-2 as underdogs.
The Avalanche, quite unvelievably, dropped their last game to the Arizona Coyotes, losing 3-2 in a shootout. They had won 10 straight before that, scoring 38 goals in those games. Looking further back, they had won 15 of 16. The Avalanche are incredible at home, going 20-2-2. The over has gone 27-13-4, they score goals.
Head to Head
The Avalanche won the first game between these two teams in October, winning 4-3 in a shootout in Tampa Bay. Last season, the Lightning won 4-3 in Colorado and the Aves won 6-2 in Tampa Bay. The Lightning are 7-2-1 over the last 10, and the over has gone 6-3-1.
Prediction
The Avalanche continue to hit the over, going 27-13-4 this season. The over between these two teams has gone 6-3-1 over the last 10, and the first game of the series was 6-2. These teams have both scored nearly 4 goals per game recently. In what should be a great game between two great teams, it's tough to call and Colorado is incredible at home. Take the over.
PICK: Over 6.5 (-105)
