#41/42 ASA NHL TOP PLAY ON 10* Over 6.5 Goals - Tampa Bay Lightning at Toronto Maple Leafs, Tuesday at 7:35 PM ET – Amazingly, all 4 games so far in this series as well as 7 straight meetings dating back to the regular season have seen the victorious team score at least 5 goals in each of the games! 6 of those 7 games have gone over the total and the average total goals scored is 8 per game. Given those numbers and the fact that neither goalie has impressed overall in this series, we like the over in this one. Special teams can play a huge role in totals as well and the fact that the last 5 games between these teams have featured a total of 2.6 power play goals scored per game is certainly a big plus for our over tonight. In fact, each team had a power play goal in each of the 2 games in Tampa and the game before that saw the Lightning score 3 power play goals at Toronto. Coming off a 7-3 loss in Game 4 on the road, the Maple Leafs are sure to respond big on home ice here but their struggles to stop the Lightning likely to continue in this one as Tampa Bay has scored an average of 4 goals in the last 7 meetings. As you can see per all of the above, plenty of reasons to expect solid goal-scoring from both clubs in this one! Take the OVER here
