NHL *POWER PLAY*
(NHL) Columbus vs. Tampa Bay,
Money Line: -150.00 Tampa Bay (Home)
Result: Loss
Play: Tampa Bay Lightning
Rating: 8*

The Tampa Bay Lightning are playing excellent hockey at the moment. They've won five of their last six games and defeated the Flyers 4-2 their last time out, despite going just 1-for-7 on the power play. I think it's a sign of strength both to force that many penalties and win without a good conversion rate. The Columbus Blue Jackets are coming off back-to-back home losses to Calgary and Colorado. They've dropped seven of the last eight visits to Tampa Bay and the Lightning took all three overall meetings last season by a total score of 11-3. Lay the juice on the Lightning, they'll prove well worthy of the investment.
