The Flyers are red hot! They snapped a 10-game skid with a 3-1 home win over the Islanders on Tuesday and when a team ends a long losing streak it often goes on a mini-run with newfound confidence. Philly did win 3-2 at Tampa early this season. The Lightning are playing for the third time in four nights across three different cities so I'll take the puckline at -130.
We saw the Flyers pick up a 3-2 win in Tampa at the beginning of the season, but I don't see the Bolts losing again. Carter Hart asserted dominance early in the season; recording wins in his first five starts. But in the 11 games since, he's only recorded two wins. Meanwhile, Andrei Vasilevskiy has a 2.88 GAA. This is statistically pretty average, but not for Vasilevskiy, who has a 2.52 career GAA and finished his worst season with a 2.76 back in 2015. The Bolts are putting up an average of 3.45 goals per game and allowing an average of 3.18. I think we see a high-scoring game tonight. Take the over.
