Game review
Tampa Bay Lightning beat Winnipeg Jets 6-4 on October 29, with the game swinging in the second period when the Lightning scored four goals while holding Winnipeg scoreless and built a 5-1 lead. Winnipeg’s three third-period goals only narrowed the final margin.
Pontus Holmberg led Tampa Bay with a goal, three assists and four points. Neal Pionk scored twice for Winnipeg, and Mark Scheifele had three assists and three points. The Lightning outshot Winnipeg and converted one of three power plays at 33.3 percent, while the Jets went 0 for 2. Winnipeg won 61.4 percent of faceoffs and blocked more shots, but Tampa Bay’s shot advantage and power-play edge drove the result.
For bettors, Tampa Bay covered the -1.5 closing spread by 0.5, and the 5.5 closing total went over by 4.5.
