    Friday Game 2: Tampa Bay Lightning (+110) - AMAZING PLAY!!!

    Hey guys,

    In this spot for +110, I love the TBL to beat Pitt tonight!

    Tampas goalie Dwayne Rolson played amazing in net last game making 40 saves.

    Tampa has insane offensive firepower:
    Stamkos, St. Louis, Lecavalier, Gagne, Malone, Moore

    Not to mention Tampa will come out hard looking for revenge and to steal a game on the road before heading back to tampa.

    TAKE TAMPA TONIGHT!!!

    I really think Tampa is a fraud of a team.

    Yea the odds are decent as its 50/50 imo, but that insane firepower failed to muster 1 goal in game 1.

    They could well win yes but to say they will come out hard wanting the win is a crazy statement lol. This is the playoffs man, every team comes out wanting it every game, not just the team down in the series.

    Anyways BOL

    Exactly. I looked at this matchup forever and cannot come up with a good likelihood for TB. They have a great lineup on paper but have burned many bettors over this season. Good luck.

    I like value on Tampa -1 1/2 +330. If they score first I like this, if they don't they probably lose.

    Pens or Bolts : is this the question ? I'll bet on the DRAW . Indeed I don't expekt an easy win for Pens nor for Bolts. By an Under contest I'm leaning on Bolts. But I'm on the DRAW.....follow me!

    Pens fan here. Fleury sucking penis tonight. Tampa still ain't shit. Pens powerplay is fukkin terrible and this team is going nowhere. there is always next season, with not only Crosby and Malkin back, but an honest to goodness scoring winger for Crosby to play with.

    Write this down

    James Neal

    44 goals in 2011-12

    And you guys really need to do a better job of line shopping

    Pending4/15/11 7:05pm NHL Hockey 17 Tampa Bay Lightning +118* vs Pittsburgh Penguins

    Nice pickup with TB. I called PIT again. Didn't see all of it but from what I did Fleury was off which makes it tough. Cheers

    Well let me recap the whole thing for you

    Refs called it like a pre season game. And of course, had inconsistent calls throughout. That is not an excuse for Tampa winning, but maybe the Pens should decline penalties. Would rather avoid an attempt to explain the physicality involved in playoff hockey and the effect that inconsistent officiating has on it.

    Pit never matched Tampa Bay's intensity

    Orpik might be the only player that didn't suck for Pit. Fleury was awful, Letang was garbage, Kovalev played like he was 38 (oh wait, he is), Neal couldn't stay upright for more than 22 seconds of any shift and Martin had what had to be the worst game of his career.

    Not to slight Tampa. They are stocked with NHL players so obviously they can play the game. They deserved the win and got it.

    I really don't know what positive the Pens could take from this game.

    Maybe putting another 36 shots on goal? Maybe knowing Tampa won't shoot 33% in the first period next game?

    Tampa played a near perfect game.
    Pit collectively had one of their worst games of the year.

    Anyone think Lightning could survive giving up 35+ shots per game vs a team not missing their 2 best players/scorers?
