The two goalies expected to start tonight have goals-against averages higher than 3.00 as San Jose's Kaapo Kahkonen is at 3.89 with an .871 save percentage, while Brian Elliott owns a 3.07 GAA and .903 save percentage. The only meeting this season went OVER as the Lightning won 4-3 in October, and Tampa Bay has gone OVER four of its past six games, including a 7-1 rout by Florida on Monday night when Andrei Vasilevskiy allowed all seven goals in a defensive breakdown by the Lightning. San Jose is 7-2 OVER its past nine games, and the two most recent combined to produce 19 goals including a 6-4 win at Pittsburgh. The Sharks are a better road team, doubling their home win-count (5) this year with a 10-13-4 record away from the Tank. San Jose has gone OVER 11 of 15 on the road and they are 14-3 OVER against a team that allowed at least five goals in its previous game. Take the Sharks to steal one and play this game OVER.
