Tampa Bay Lightning Form
Tampa Bay enter this game looking to build on a weekend road win that got them back into this series.
The Lighting got off to a terrible start in the postseason as they were beaten 6-2 by Florida in the series-opener.
That was followed by a 2-0 defeat in Game 2, meaning the pressures was firmly on them when they went out on the road for Game 3 on Saturday.
Tampa Bay rallied though, cutting the gap in the series to just one game with a surprose 5-1 victory over the Panthers.
The Lightning claimed a playoff place by finishing second in the Atlantic Division standings with a 47-27-8 record.
Florida Panthers Form
Florida go into this matchup on the back of a defeat, but still holding a series lead after three games.
The Panthers opened the playoffs on the road and made a dream start as they beat the Lightning 6-2.
They then followed that up and gave themselves a chance to clinch the series at home by winning 2-0 in Game 2.
Florida passed up on that chance though, as they suffered a 5-1 defeat on Saturday that means they must head back to Tampa this week.
The Panthers earned their place in the postseason by finishing third in the Atlantic Division standings with a 47-31-4 record.
Verdict
Florida are in complete control of this series and we are struggling to see a way back for Tampa.
We expect the Panthers to take Game 3 and move within one win of the second round.
