The Tampa Bay Lightning are +650 to overcome a 3-1 series deficit against the reigning Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers.
The Battle of Florida has been one of the several thrilling first-round series in this year’s postseason, and it’s not over yet.
Game 4 provided the first home win of the series after the Panthers took Games 1 and 2 on the road in Tampa and the Lightning won Game 3 by a score of 5-1.
In Game 4, the Cup holders showed their playoff poise, scoring three times in the final four minutes of regulation, including twice in 11 seconds, to erase a 2-1 deficit and win 4-2.
Aaron Ekblad – who is suspended for the next two games for a hit on Lightning winger Brandon Hagel – scored the first before Seth Jones buried the go-ahead goal moments later.
