Tampa Bay could be tired after eight road games in a row and the Lightning is playing at home for the first time since Jan. 18. The Lightning ended the trip with a 6-2 loss at Edmonton as Connor McDavid proved to be too much to overcome as he scored four goals and added an assist. Andrei Vasilevskiy gave up four of the goals and he has allowed 10 goals his last three starts. Canucks goalie has a 2.75 goals-against average and he was in net in Vancouver's 3-1 loss at Florida on Tuesday when he saved 37-of-39 shots. The Canucks look to avenge a 4-2 loss to the Lightning on Saturday and the road team has won four of the last five meetings. There is huge line value in the road underdog in this matchup, so take the Canucks to spring the upset.
