Lightning hope to get on track versus Maple Leafs
Hockey Betting Lines
03/11/2010 -
(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Tampa Bay Lightning will aim for just their second win
in eight games when they visit the Toronto Maple Leafs tonight at Air Canada
Centre.
The Lightning are only five points out of a playoff berth in the Eastern
Conference, but have posted a 1-6-0 record in their last seven games. Tampa
has dropped three of four since the Olympic break and is coming off Tuesday's
road loss against Montreal.
The Canadiens posted a 5-3 win over the Bolts, marking the sixth time in seven
games that Tampa Bay has surrendered five goals or more. The Lightning's lone
win during that stretch came in a 6-2 victory over Atlanta on Saturday.
Steven Stamkos scored a goal and dished out an assist for the Lightning, who
have dropped six of seven. Martin St. Louis and Matt Walker also lit the lamp
in defeat.
Antero Niittymaki gave up four goals on 13 shots before being pulled near the
midway point of the second. Mike Smith turned aside 14-of-15 shots in relief.
"We have to find a way to win on the road," Stamkos said. "It has become too
common. We're going to run out of time if we can't win on the road."
The Lightning are just 9-19-5 as the guest this year and have lost four
straight road games. Tonight's tilt marks the middle test of a three-game road
trip for Tampa.
The team's road woes have not been the fault of Stamkos, at least not
recently. The 2008 No. 1 overall draft choice is riding a franchise-record 17-
game point streak and has amassed 16 goals and 15 assists over that span.
Stamkos is third in the league with 41 goals, placing him behind only
Washington's Alex Ovechkin and Pittsburgh's Sidney Crosby.
Tampa could be without winger Ryan Malone for a second straight game as he
continues to battle an upper-body injury suffered Saturday against Atlanta.
The Maple Leafs are last in the East with 54 points but they have registered a
point in four straight games, going 2-0-2 over that span.
Toronto was able to record a win its last time out, edging visiting Boston,
4-3, in Tuesday's overtime decision. Nikolai Kulemin scored with 49.7 seconds
left in OT to lead the Leafs to the dramatic victory.
Wayne Primeau, Carl Gunnarsson and Luca Caputi also scored in regulation for
the Maple Leafs, helping their team win for just the second time in seven
games. Jonas Gustavsson stopped 26-of-29 shots to get the win.
"We're playing for pride right now and some guys are playing for jobs next
year. When you're out there you want to win," Gustavsson said.
Toronto, which is just 12-14-5 as the host this year. will complete a three-
game homestand Saturday against Edmonton.
The Lightning have won two of its three tests against Toronto this year, but
both of those victories came in overtime. Tampa has taken six of eight overall
in the series and has won three straight in Toronto.
Tonight marks the final scheduled matchup of the year between the Bolts and
Leafs.
