Yesterday’s Results for New York Islanders vs Tampa Bay Lightning

BIG AL's GAME 7 LIGHTNING/ISLANDERS $$$-MAKER

Analysis: At 8:05 pm, our selection is on the Tampa Bay Lightning over the New York Islanders. In Game 5, the Lightning not only ran over the Isles 8-0, but they out-shot them 42-21 as well. They should have saved some of those shots for Game 6 in New York as the Bolts only put 24 shots on net Wednesday night. Although they led the game 2-0 more than halfway through, the Lightning couldn't seal the deal and they fell in overtime, 3-2. They will put all that behind them as the Bolts hit the reset button tonight and will have plenty of fans in the stands at home for what will be the last game of the season for one of these teams. The home team is 4-2 in this series and Tampa hopes that trend continues tonight at Amalie Arena. The Bolts thrive on these next-game revenge situations as they are 9-1 (+7 games on the moneyline) in their last 10 when revenging a one-goal loss to an opponent. They are also 5-0 in their last five immediately following an overtime loss while the Isles are just 5-6 in their last 11 following an OT victory. Take the Lightning. As always, good luck...Al McMordie.
