The Carolina Hurricanes and Tampa Bay Lightning meet Tuesday in NHL action at the Amalie Arena. The Carolina Hurricanes look for a win to build on their 9-1-0 record. The Tampa Bay Lightning look for a win after winning four of their last five games.

The Carolina Hurricanes are averaging 3.9 goals per game and are scoring on 25.6 percent of their power play opportunities. Andrei Svechnikov leads Carolina with 7 goals, Tony DeAngelo has 8 assists and Sebastian Aho has 29 shots on goal. Defensively, the Carolina Hurricanes are allowing 2 goals per game and are killing 84.8 percent of their opponent’s power plays. Frederick Anderson has allowed 16 goals on 262 shots faced, and Antti Rant has allowed 3 goals on 30 goals.

The Tampa Bay Lightning are averaging 3.2 goals per game and are scoring on 18.2 percent of their power play opportunities. Alex Killorn leads Tampa Bay with 7 goals, Victor Hedman has 9 assists and Steven Stamkos has 32 shots on goal. Defensively, the Tampa Bay Lightning are allowing 3.1 goals per game and are killing 84.2 percent of their opponent’s power plays. Andrei Vasilevskiy has given up 22 goals on 270 shots faced, and Brain Elliott has allowed 6 goals on 50 shots.

The Hurricanes are 9-4 in their last 13 games playing on 2 days rest and 9-1 in their last 10 overall. The Lightning are 53-22 in their last 75 home games and 102-49 in their last 151 overall. The over is 7-3 in Hurricanes last 10 road games. The over is 4-1-1 in Lightning last 6 games as a favorite. The Hurricanes are 17-35 in the last 52 meetings in Tampa Bay.

The Tampa Bay Lightning are a tough team to fade, especially on their home ice, but they have been shaky at times defensively this season, and they have yet to look like the Boogeyman we’re used to seeing. The Carolina Hurricanes have lost just once in 10 tries, have looked elite offensively, and we’re getting plus money with them. I have to take the value of the Canes at this price.
