The Lightning hope they get more respect from the Senators Thursday than they do from Vegas oddsmakers, who peg them as 180 underdogs.
Sporting a 7-4-2 overall record and a 5-2-1 mark within the division, the Lightning aim to knock the Senators (8-0-0 in the division) for a loss.
In a game that potentially could see plenty of scoring, the total opened high, at 6.5. The line opened at 180 in favor of the Senators.
After giving up 6 goals in a loss against the Thrashers, Tampa Bay fans expect their defence to hold the fort better against the Senators. If not, this one will likely go into the books as a loss.
The hosts hope their 10-goal outburst last game in a win versus Buffalo was no fluke and that their defence can keep the visiting Lightning in check. Last game went over the closing total.
This game is likely to come down to the Senators's execution on offence. They rank 1st in the league in scoring and look to sustain their 4.9 goals per game average against the Lightning's #5-rated defensive unit.
Some trends to consider:
Tampa Bay is 1-5-0 OU in its last 6 away
Tampa Bay is 2-5-1 OU in its last 8 games
Tampa Bay is 8-3-1 OU in its last 12 games away against Ottawa
Tampa Bay is 17-5-3 OU in its last 25 games against Ottawa
Ottawa is 4-1-0 OU in its last 5 games
Ottawa is 17-5-3 OU in its last 25 games against Tampa Bay
Ottawa is 8-3-1 OU in its last 12 games at home against Tampa Bay
Ottawa is 1-5-0 SU in its last 6 games after scoring more than 6 goals

Ottawa home to N.Y. Islanders, Saturday, November 5
