Scouting report

Sprinkle's read:TB Under 3.5 team total★★★

A quiet offense against a full number

Tampa Bay has gone quiet, scoring 4.2 times a game over their last five, and tonight's number asks them to beat that.

The number

Tampa Bay would need to roughly lift their recent output to clear 3.5, and nothing in the last five games suggests that is close.

The decider

Vasilevskiy is the weaker net by a wide margin right now — stopping about nine of ten, well off his own baseline — so Tampa Bay's side of the scoreboard is the one likely to move.

The context

These two have been playing different games: Columbus's games are ordinary, Tampa Bay's are track meets. This bet is really a question of which pattern holds. Tampa Bay is putting 30.2 shots a game on net and finishing 12.2% of them.

Situational

Tampa Bay is three games into a road trip — a notch toward the under.

What breaks this

Their last meeting went at a 8-goal pace.
