Tampa Bay at Chicago

Premium Pick

Tampa Bay has had a nice postseason run on the road, but this team was not great (18-16-7) on the road during the regular season. This is a tough spot, as it's the second straight road game against a dynamite all-around Chicago team that is desperate for a win. There are also concerns about the health of Tampa Bay Lightning goalie Ben Bishop. He is six-foot-seven and in game three labored to both stand and move laterally. The Lightning are 2-5 following a win. Chicago is a dominant home team and #2 in the NHL in goals allowed and #10 in penalty killing. Chicago is 93-42 in their last 135 home games and 7-3 when playing on one day of rest. The Blackhawks have dropped consecutive games for the first time in the playoffs and they are no stranger to overcoming a 2-1 series deficit in the Stanley Cup final, having done so against Boston in 2013. This is a talented, veteran team that has risen to the occasion many times since 2010, winning two Cups and on the verge of a third. The Blackhawks are 6-1 after scoring two goals or less in their previous game, so grab home ice and take Chicago in game four.
