Pittsburgh at Tampa Bay

Pittsburgh has a winning record on the road keyed by great defense - ninth in goals allowed and fifth in penalty killing.

The Lightning are 6-13 when following a win. Pittsburgh held Steven Stamkos without a point last season to win two of three as part of an 11-1-0 run in the series, including 4-1 at Tampa Bay. Against Pittsburgh, Tampa Bay goalie Ben Biship is 0-2-0 with a 4.93 GAA and .856 save percentage in five career games. Counterpart Marc-Andre Fleury is 7-0-0 in his last eight starts against the Lightning. Take Pittsburgh.
