Senators to Avoid Lighting

The Ottawa Senators will be looking to grab a 3-1 lead in their best-of-seven series when they play the Lightning in Tampa Bay on Thursday.

Wade Redden missed Game 2 to be with his family, but came back for Game 3 to notch a power play goal and two assists in the Sens' victory.

Oddsmakers like the Senators in this one, opening the line at 160 in favor of Ottawa. The total opened at 6.5 goals.

Bryan Murray's team hopes to build upon an 8-4 win over the Lightning in Game 3. They were favorites in a game that went OVER the total.

This game is likely to come down to the Senators' execution on offence, as Martin Havlat, Jason Spezza, and others have been piling up the points.
