Florida Panthers at Tampa Bay Lightning Preview & Picks
Florida are tipped to make it back-to-back playoff wins in Tampa.
We gave Tampa the benefit of the doubt in Game 1, but it is becoming increasingly difficult to overlook just how good the Panthers’ recent record against the Lightning is.
- Florida Panthers are 7-3 in the previous 10 meetings
- Florida Panthers are 4-2 in their last 6 visits to Tampa
- Only 1 of the previous 12 meetings have gone to overtime
- The Under cashed in the 2 previous meetings at Amerant Bank Arena
Head To Head
- Florida Panthers lead the all-time series 86-62-29
- Florida Panthers won 6-2 when the two teams last met on April 22
Florida Panthers Form
Florida go into the second game of this series looking to back up an impressive victory over Tampa Bay in Game 1.
The Panthers took the matchup 6-2, and that means they will at the very least be on level terms when they host the Lightning for the first time in the series.
If they can win here, the defending champions will have the opportunity to wrap up the series on the home ice.
Florida earned their place in the playoffs by finishing third in the Atlantic Division with a 47-31-4 record.
In doing so they reached the postseason for the fifth straight year, and they have made the Stanley Cup Finals in each of the previous two campaigns, winning last year.
Tampa Bay Lightning Form
Tampa Bay go into their second home game of the series looking to issue an immediate response to the Game 1 loss.
The Lightning held home ice advantage heading into this ‘best of’ series, but they have gifted the upper-hand to Florida.
They were beaten 6-2 in the first meeting, and that means they must now win this matchup to guarantee at least one more home game in this series.
Tampa Bay secured their playoff berth by finishing second in the Atlantic Division with a 47-27-8 record.
The Lightning are appearing in the postseason for the eighth season running, but they have fallen at the first hurdle in each of the last two years and will desperate to avoid that happening again.
Verdict
Winning twice on the road in the playoffs is tough, but we like Florida’s chances of pulling it off.
The Panthers have had Tampa’s number in recent meetings and have a good recent record in road meetings, so give us the visitors and the plus-money.
