Tampa Bay at Dallas

This has been a really tight series, but the Tampa Bay Lightning found some separation in Game 3 to take a 2-1 series lead. This is a huge game for Dallas if they want to stay in contention in this series. Tampa Bay got off quickly and were never threatened, but I expect a much more spirited and focused attack by Dallas in Game 4. Dallas struck out on all four power play opportunities. It was the second straight loss by Dallas, who has been very consistent, and has not dropped three straight since August 5. This game should be tight, and I will ride with Dallas on the puckline.
