Game 29 Prediction Panel: Ottawa Senators @ Tampa Bay Lightning

Remember to put your predictions in the comments to this post by the scheduled start time for it to count as an entry in our prediction contest! You can read the full rules on that here, and see the results and all of the entries (might both be a bit way behind) here.

Tampa Bay has not had a great season to date but it is still tough to pick Ottawa on the road here. The Lightning have a much better roster on paper.

The Lightning have been bottled up offensively for a big chunk of the season, but the Sens don’t nearly have the defensive talent that many other Eastern conference teams have. Erik Condra gets a point ;)

The might just be me being pessimistic, but I bet this is the game the Lightning snap out of their scoring drought

Remember that guy Erik Condra? He was pretty cool. Too bad he unfairly asked for 5 million dollars from the Sens. Way too expensive.

The Sens do their best to keep Stamkos at bay, but he still finds a way to pot a pair of goals. Luckily the Sens are able to shut down the rest of the Lightning and come out of Tampa with a big two points.

Condra comes back to bite his olde team and gets the game winner on a breakaway he shockingly converts

I foresee the Lightning getting a disappointing game in goal, allowing Ottawa to steal the win in extra time.

Tampa Bay has been a huge disappointment thus far, and they're bound to explode some time. No better team to do it against than Ottawa.
