Anthony Beauvillier scored 1:08 into overtime last game, and New York beat the Lightning 3-2 to force a Game 7, but the Lightning shouldn't be too concerned as they have won 13 in a row following a postseason loss the last two years. Tampa Bay still has the edge in net with Andrei Vasilevskiy, who has a 2.11 postseason goals-against average in 17 games with a .933 save percentage. In his career, Vasilevskiy owns a 2.31 GAA and .922 save percentage in 75 playoff games with four shutouts. The Islanders still are 9-19 the past 28 meetings with the Lightning, and Tampa Bay is 65-25 playing with one day of rest, 63-17 after scoring two or fewer goals its previous game. Play the Lightning on the puckline.
