- 4-Unit Play Take Florida -135 over Tampa Bay (1 p.m. EST, Saturday April 26)
The Panthers have the Lightning on the ropes and have dominated the first two meetings of this series. They have won seven of the last ten meetings now, and they have the championship pedigree to keep the momentum going in this crucial game. This team has one of the best home ice advantages in hockey, and Tampa Bay is simply an average road team. Tampa Bay blew their chances in this series by underperforming at home, and they won't say it out loud, but they know their chances are slim here to get back into this series.
