Tampa Bay comes into this game with a record of 13-9-2, showing a solid performance overall but with some inconsistency. They've been particularly strong on the power play and have one of the best goalies in the league in Andrei Vasilevskiy. Their last game was a convincing 8-1 win against the Sharks, highlighting their offensive capabilities. Vancouver has a record of 13-7-4, placing them third in the Pacific Division. They've been consistent both offensively and defensively but have had issues with special teams. Their latest win was a strong performance against Columbus, showcasing their depth scoring. The Lightning have a significant edge on the power play, which could be crucial if the Canucks continue to struggle with penalties. Conversely, Vancouver's penalty kill has been less effective. Considering their recent form and Vasilevskiy's impact, the Lightning are worth backing as an underdog.
