The most interesting game of the day
In the NHL semi-finals, two-time dominant Stanley Cup winner Tampa Bay showed real championship gains for the first time this spring, rising from a 0-2 loss to a 3-2 win against NY Rangers – deservedly so.
The victory was vital for Tampa, as it narrowed the series to 1-2. 0-3 would probably have been a fatal backward already, even though the team is constantly improving their performances.
Gameplay Tampa’s victory in the last match was fully deserved after winning shots 51-30 and a goal-expected 5.0-3.0. Also visually, Tampa looked like a better – even hungrier – team for the first time in a series match.
Significant observations for the sequel, or at least a four-match, in the third encounter were Tampa Nikita Kucherovin second consecutive good game along with the Rangers Spring Power Chain “Kid linen“complete disappearance from the image.
Kucherov, who fluctuated in the spring playoffs, was the best player on the field in the triple play, both in terms of play and power (1 + 2).
Brayden Point in the absence of Tampa ‘s real solution players, the curve is currently limited to Kucherov and To Steven Stamkos. One of the two is practically forced to shine if Tampa likes to beat the Rangers, which suddenly feel like a deeper team at the moment. In the first home game of the series, both of Tampa’s number one horses were successful.
Similarly, for the outcome of the triple play, the Rangers side of the triple chain was also decisive. “Kid linen“complete playoffs. In two New York head opening matches, the powers of 3 + 4 hit Kaapo Kakko–Filip Chytil–Alexis Lafreniere-vitja missed points in the match and scored only four goals per goal! Even very crucial in a four-game match is whether the youngsters make their games work under foreign pressure.
In terms of lineups, Point’s play is still uncertain – probably not playing. In addition, the Rangers Center Department as well Ryan Strome that Barclay Goodrow got such bad lungs in the triple match that it is uncertain that they will both play in the quadruple match. If both are missing, it has to be calculated for Rangers by several percentage points minus the chances of winning.
When thinking about the balance of power in a purely game-like manner, Tampa showed at its best that it was enough for the Rangers and the speed of the Rangers. At half power, the Rangers still have an advantage – depending on the game conditions of Strome and Goodrow.
From a psychological / mental point of view, the match is not at all as clear-cut as one might imagine. Tampa’s triumph of the “old thunderstorms” and the release of pressure as strong vents at the end of the triple play would be easy to interpret as now the locks opened and the team is full of enthusiasm and hunger again.
However, that may not be the only truth, as an experienced guard who played a little sluggishly in several previous matches could also get his climax from that win, and again, in a four-handed game, he’s not quite at his sharpest.
Rangers, on the other hand, had a hard time on the waterlogged pitch – his trademark technique was nowhere in sight today. I consider the fourth encounter of the teams to be a match of greater variance than the overall estimate.
Tampa – Rangers starts at 3.07 p.m.
The best bet of the day
No actual betting treats are offered by Tampa and Rangers ’fourth encounter.
However, there is some reliance on the fact that Rangers are very likely to have injury problems in the center section, and that Tampa’s home balance of this spring’s playoffs is 5/6 and Rangers ’away balance is only 2/8, respectively.
Technically, Veikkaus’ 1.97 multiplier for Tampa’s actual playing time is the highest on the market. This is an estimated 50 percent match.
