Premium Pick

Tampa Bay is in a heap of trouble, down 2-0 in the series and its star forward, Nikita Kucherov, is suspended for this game after a vicious hit to Markus Nutivaara.  Matt Duchene had a goal and three assists and Sergei Bobrovsky made 23 saves in Columbus' 5-1 win on Friday.  The Blue Jackets also got goals from four other skaters as they took a commanding lead against the team that had the best regular-season record in the NHL.  The Blue Jackets have won nine of their last 10 games overall and peaking at the right time while the Lightning has been flat.  The UNDER is 23-9-1 the last 33 meetings, including five of the last six at Columbus.  Also, the Lightning is 9-3 UNDER its last 12 after scoring two or fewer goals its previous game.  Columbus is 13-6 UNDER its last 19 games overall.  Play the Blue Jackets on the puck line and the UNDER.
