LiontipsLos Angeles vs Tampa. Prediction and Betting Tips for NHL (October 26, 2022).
Command Analysis
Los Angeles broke their three-game winning streak and suffered a devastating defeat at Pittsburgh (1:6). Goalie Petersen had a disaster of a game and was substituted off at the start of the second period, but that didn't help the Kings at all. After that loss, the Kings yielded to Washington. They had a two-goal lead but couldn't maintain it and lost in regulation (3:4).
Tampa Bay had a disappointing start to the season, but it looks like the team is finally gaining some momentum. The Lightning got a hard-fought victory over Florida in overtime (3:2 OT) and celebrated success over the Islanders (5:3) at home. Each player of first line enjoyed a great game and earned points.
