Anaheim Ducks vs Tampa Bay Lightning Prediction: We have every reason to expect a high-scoring

Anaheim had another mediocre regular season, which resulted in no shining Cup battles for the Ducks. At the same time, their season debut was excellent, and the 6-game winning streak even inspired some faith in their progress. Nothing of the sort happened. Gradually, the results began to decline, and in March, they stopped playing altogether. In seven consecutive matches, the Californians failed to score at least one point, losing seven times in regulation time, but the day before, the streak was broken with a 4:0 home win over Chicago. 

Tampa Bay did not spend the first half of the regular season in the best of ways, which is why they were forced to hover on the edge of the Cup Eight for a long time, but the Lightning's class is so high that there was no doubt about their eventual success. And that's how it works. By the middle of March, such an ambitious and high-profile team was starting to find its groove, and they won five straight games by a combined score of 27:10. It was an impressive run! John Cooper's wards had their winning streak interrupted only the day before when they lost to Los Angeles 4:3 in overtime. Tampa Bay now sits in sixth place in the Eastern Conference standings.

The Californians are no longer solving their tournament problems at the end of the regular season. They are playing out the season calmly, losing in regulation in seven of the last eight meetings. The Lightning have been out of form for a long time, but things are starting to click now, with 11 points out of a possible 12 in their last six games. The head-to-head stats are also in the Lightning's favor, as they have won the previous four games in a row.

We have every reason to expect a high-scoring game. Tampa Bay should initiate it, as it has been playing bright, open, and productive hockey lately. In the last eight games, the Lightning have scored 60 goals (an average of 7.50 per game), which is already a very high number. In six of the eight games, they have scored and conceded at least three goals.
