Tampa Bay Lightning at Montreal Canadiens Predictions & Picks
The Under trend is tipped to continue as Montreal wrap up the series.
Consistency has eluded both teams in this series, but one constant has been that each game has been tightly contested, and in all but one meeting these teams have gone under the total.
- The Under has cashed in 4 of the 5 games in this series so far
- 6 of the previous 7 meetings this year have produced under 5.5 goals
- The Under has hit in 9 of Tampa Bay’s previous 12 games
- Montreal Canadiens are 5-2 in the previous 7 meetings
Head To Head
- Tampa Bay Lightning lead the all-time series 77-53-17
- Montreal Canadiens won 3-2 when the two teams last met on April 29

Verdict
The Under continues to deliver in this series, and with the stakes higher than ever that trend is likely to continue.
We also lean towards hosts Montreal – they again responded immediately to a loss and they do boast a strong recent record against the Lightning.
