Tampa Bay at Chicago

Tampa Bay started its critical six-game road trip with a solid 2-1 victory at Los Angeles. They totaled 47 shots the last game in a loss at Arizona. Ace goaltender Ben Bishop has been back after an injury and the Lightning are 36-17 when playing on two days of rest. Chicago is a big favorite at home but just 3-2 the last five games, including a home loss to Minnesota as chalk. They've actually been outscored 15-13 the last five contests, partly because of a penalty-killing unit that is one of the worst in the league (#28). Back Tampa Bay.
