Florida at Tampa Bay

Neither of these two teams is off to a good start. Florida has been even worse on the road where they are losers in five of their last six games while getting out-scored 20-11, or almost a 2-1 margin. Tampa Bay has already played in seven contests where the game was decided in OT, or a shootout. Since their 0-5 start to the season the Lightning has only lost at home to Detroit (12-2-3) and San Jose (16-3-1) which are a much greater caliber of team than they will be seeing tonight. I like the Lightning in this one.
