Lightning own this matchup – 6-2 win in last meeting, outshot NYR 44-25. Tampa's offense clicking: 3.54 goals/game (4th), 53 PP goals (6th). Rangers' PK slipping – 5 PPGs allowed last 5 games, gave up both PP + SHG in last outing. Momentum edge is real here. Rangers in freefall – 3-6-1 last 10, playoff hopes fading. Power play ice-cold: 3-for-52 last 19 games. Team pressing, forcing plays, getting burned. Lightning’s defense solid: 2.61 GA/game (7th), Vasilevskiy locked in. NYR offense can’t generate real pressure. Lightning also dominate key possession stats – 28.7 shots/game vs NYR’s 28.5, but allow fewer (28.2 vs 29.8). Better discipline on special teams too: 6th in PP goals, NYR 23rd in PK%. Tampa wins the efficiency battle all over the ice – sharper, deeper, hotter team right now.
