Tampa Bay's defense has averaged less than three goals per game. Their goaltenders have done well, but there is a slight downfall in their performances. Andrei Vasilevskiy will have a crucial role to play.

The Canucks have scored around 150 goals in 43 games this season, with contributions coming from the duo of Bo Horvat and Elias Pettersson. Both have the most goals and the most assists combined for The Canucks.

Their defense has limited the impact of the attack. The Canucks have conceded 3.9 goals per game, a stat that needs urgent improvement.

Lightning vs Canucks Betting Prediction

The Lightning are firm favorites. They are on a winning run and possess a better squad compared to The Canucks. The Nucks' defense is poor and with their attack not scoring enough, we can expect them to struggle in this game.
