Tampa Bay is tops in the NHL in goals scored. They have lost two in a row and are on a 2-3 run despite scoring 17 goals the last five games. Tampa Bay is 9-4 after allowing five goals or more in their previous game. They will bounce back against a San Jose team that is 13th in goals scored and 20th in goals allowed. San Jose had lost five of six before overcoming a two-goal deficit to beat Arizona 4-2 on Friday. The Sharks are 0-4 in their last four home games, plus 1-5 on one days rest. Goalie Antti Niemi has lost his last four home starts with a 3.90 GAA. San Jose will slow the pace down, a team that is 9-4-2 UNDER the total against the Eastern Conference, but Tampa Bay has more weapons on offense and defense. Play Tampa Bay and the game UNDER the total.
