Los Angeles at Tampa Bay

The Tampa Bay Lightning have been bringing it at home where they remain unbeaten at 5-0-3 through their first eight games. The Kings have run hot and cold surrounding a pair of four game winning streaks with the remainder showing just three wins in 11 tries. They are in the worst stretch of the season right now dropping three of four, but the three losses have been by a combined 12 goals. This team has already suffered seven losses on the season by two goals or more and when they are playing poorly they have been totally uncompetitive. Tampa Bay has the hothand at home, the Kings have been getting humiliated of late and the Lightning own a 7-1-1 mark in the last nine here as it is, catching this one just right. I'll go with Tampa Bay on the puckline.
