WATCH: Stanley Cup Final – Montreal Canadiens At Tampa Bay Lightning, Game 2

Analyzing the Canadiens at Lightning Game 2 Stanley Cup Final matchup.

The Montreal Canadiens have defied the odds throughout the 2021 Stanley Cup playoffs by winning three consecutive series as the underdog. In two of their previous series, they lost Game 1 but responded by taking Game 2.

They’re in the same situation after dropping Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final against the Tampa Bay Lightning 5-1. Game 2 is Wednesday night, and this time the trends aren’t all that favorable for Montreal.

Consider:
– The Canadiens have a seven-game losing streak in the Lightning’s rink (Amalie Arena).
– The Lightning have won Game 2 in six consecutive playoff series, which is among the reasons why Tampa Bay is the reigning Stanley Cup champion.
– The Canadiens are 9-3 in their past 12 games as underdogs, but one of those three losses was Monday in Game 1.

These factors help add up to the money line, via BetMGM, being Canadiens +180 (bet $100 to win $180) | Lightning -225 (bet $225 to win $100).
