Montreal Canadiens vs. Tampa Bay Lightning Analysis on 4/1/14

You are here

Montreal vs Tampa Bay NHL

The Montreal Canadiens have suffered from an inconsistent offense which is also reflective of the erratic play of D PK Subban, who was the Norris Trophy winner last year as the National Hockey League’s best defensemen despite his well-deserved reputation for plays that often leave fans and gamblers shaking their heads in amazement both in a positive and negative light. The Tampa Bay Lighting are still trying to recover from Martin St. Louis abandoning them due to a hissy fit about being left off the original Olympic roster for Team Canada by GM Steve Yzerman even though he eventually ended up on the team and with a goal medal. The Tampa Bay Lightning will host the Montreal Canadiens on RDS Tuesday night with coverage starting at 7:30 PM ET.

Losing Hab-it on Road

The Montreal Canadiens have lost 6 out of their last 10 away games as just 3 out of their last 8 away games have gone over the total with the NHL lines. The Canadiens have shown resurgence however with the return of G Cary Price who is an Olympic hero for Montreal and has emerged as one of the top netminders in the NHL. Thomas Vanek recently scored a hat trick to give the offense hope.

Bolts get Jolts of Trouble

The Tampa Bay Lightning have seen their value drop significantly at home with just 4 payouts in their last 12 matchups at the Tampa Bay Times Forum with 7 out of their last 10 home games going over the total.

The Pick

The Montreal Canadiens have won 8 out of their last 12 games with the Tampa Bay Lightning as 6 out of the last 9 meetings between the Canadiens and Lightning have gone under the total. The Montreal Canadiens have won 4 out of their last 6 games at the Tampa Bay Lightning with 4 out of the last 6 games at Tampa Bay between the Habs and Lightning going over the total. Based on their head to head record and the Lightning’s drop off since the Marin ST. Louis controversy and trade we’ll call for the Montreal Canadiens and over the total in this one!
