Philadelphia Flyers vs Tampa Bay Lightning Prediction

The Philadelphia Flyers just haven’t been able to get out of their own way this season, and their defense is terrible. The Tampa Bay Lightning aren’t having a great week, but they come back home, where they’ve played their best hockey. The Lightning have a field day against the Flyers when they meet, often scoring oodles of goals. When these teams clashed in March, the Lightning won by a score of 7-0. I have to side with the Lightning on their home ice, and I’ll lay the PL to shave down the expensive price.
