Tampa Bay @ Washington

Advice: TB -1.5

Here’s why:

Tampa Bay has the W in 6 out of the last 8 meetings against Washington at home.  Washington’s goals per game average this year is 2.3 - with a 1.6 goals per game average over the last 5.  In comparison, TB is 7-2 at home and putting up 4.1 goals a game while allowing only 2.2.

The Lightning are hot right now outscoring their opponents 19-5 over their last 4 contests.  Washington is a lowly 15-43 going back over a season vs. good PP teams (TB is a GREAT PP team, converting 22%).

Side Notes:

• These 2 met last week with TB winning 5-2
• Capitals are 4-7 on the road this year
