Colorado Avalanche vs Tampa Bay Lightning NHL Playoffs Game 4 Odds, Lines, Picks, and Predictions

After a tragic second game for Tampa Bay Lightning, they got back their mojo after playing at home. They won the third game 6-2, and most of the goals for the home team were scored in the second period. How will the fourth game end? Will we see a total Tampa Bay Avalanche domination, as we did in the conference finals, or will Colorado Avalanche regain their groove? Let’s see what our experts think about the upcoming game four in the Avalanche vs Lightning NHL final series. 

While Colorado Avalanche started out the first two games with wins, they couldn’t hold back Lightning from taking their first win at home. In the first period, the game was somehow balanced even though Lightning came out leading and only minutes in the second period managed to score and make the game 3-1 in favor of Lightning. After Gabriel Landeskog scored the second goal for Avalanche during the game, Tampa Bay Lightning got even hungrier and managed to score more goals over six minutes. Steven Stamkos, Pat Maroon, and Corey Perry all scored a goal each making the final score 6-2. 

Tampa Bay Lightning will be looking to tie the series this week at the second game they will be hosting. It seems that they are more comfortable at home, and they might just do that if Colorado Avalanche continues to play like the second period in game three. Let’s check out the game’s top NHL free picks and predictions for the upcoming game.

The odds are close once more on most bookmaker platforms for the upcoming Avalanche vs Lightning game that will be played this weekend. Although Tampa Bay Lightning managed to surprise us all after their 7-0 loss in game two and recover with a difference of four goals in game three, bookmakers still mostly put Colorado Avalanche as the favored team, so Lightning’s odds are better based on the bookmaker you are looking at. Since all three games, so far, ended with more than six goals scored, bookmakers believe that both teams will keep up the trend giving the under 5.5 goals market odds of +125. 

Top Colorado Avalanche vs Tampa Bay Lightning Predictions 

Tampa Bay Lightning +1.5 @ -265 

After a third game where Lightning managed to win with a four-goal difference, bookmakers seem to believe that Lightning will once again beat Avalanche with more than 1.5 goal difference. The odds for this market range between –200 and –265 depending on which bookmaker platform, you look at, but considering that this time around Lightning will host the game once more, we think that the spread is in their favor this time around, too.

Over 5.5 Goals @ -125 

The fourth game of the NHL finals series is setting up to be quite interesting with Avalanche leading, for now, but Lightning may go for the tie this week. We believe that the goals scored during game four will most likely be more than 5.5 this time around. All three games between them, so far, in the final ended with seven or more goals scored by both teams. We think that game four will end similarly, and bookmakers agree with us.

In two of the last three games of the series, Valeri Nichushkin had more than 2.5 shots through the games. Even when they lost the game to Lightning, he had one shot during that match. We think that in the third game we will see his shots statistics be more than 2.5, too. See our betting guide for the game for more information on offers and streaming.
