Preview: Maple Leafs (13-21) at Lightning (24-18)

Date: January 27, 2016 7:00 PM EDT

Ben Bishop and the Tampa Bay Lightning took a step back last time out after a dominant stretch by the team and its trusty goaltender.

A matchup with the punchless Toronto Maple Leafs could be exactly what both need to bounce back.

While the Lightning attempt to enter the All-Star break with some renewed momentum, the Maple Leafs simply hope to build some when the teams meet Wednesday night.

The Lightning's season-high seven-game winning streak came undone by one bad period Saturday at Florida, where the upstart Panthers increased their lead on their in-state rivals in the Atlantic Division with a 5-2 victory. Four of those goals came during a second period in which Tampa Bay (26-18-4) was outshot by a 19-5 margin.

'We got away (from) what's made us successful the past couple games,' captain Steven Stamkos said.

After allowing just four goals total in winning his four previous starts, Bishop permitted four on 30 shots before being removed at the second intermission.

The All-Star netminder likely won't see such a barrage from a Maple Leafs team that's scored a mere 11 goals in losing eight of nine, and none in 23 power-play chances over the last eight.

'We have lots of work to do,' coach Mike Babcock said. 'When you see the really good teams play and you see their talent base, you see where we've got to get to and we all understand that. It's going to be a process. That doesn't make it any easier on game night.'

Toronto (17-21-9) had showed signs of slight progress by earning at least one point in three straight prior to Tuesday's 5-1 defeat at Florida, now seven points ahead of the fourth-place Lightning in the Atlantic. The Maple Leafs were outscored 5-0 over the final two periods in dropping a third straight.

'They got going, we made mistakes and they capitalized,' Babcock said. 'We had lots of chances, too, but we didn't capitalize. We've seen that before.'

Toronto hasn't recorded a power-play goal since James van Riemsdyk fractured his foot on Jan. 9, though it's lacked production from most of its top healthy forwards of late. Leo Komarov has scored just one of his team-leading 16 goals in the past 15 games, Tyler Bozak has none in 13 straight and P.A. Parenteau has two assists over his last nine.

Nazem Kadri has scored in two straight, however, after registering the game's first goal on Tuesday.

Tampa Bay continues to get consistent offense from Nikita Kucherov, who assisted on Victor Hedman's goal Saturday to extend his point streak to eight games. The 22-year-old has six goals and five assists over that span and 28 points in 22 games since Dec. 5, second only to Patrick Kane's 32 for most in the league during that period.

Hedman has 10 points over his last eight games while remaining a vital part of a penalty kill that's 41 of 45 during a 15-game stretch.

After James Reimer started Tuesday's loss, Jonathan Bernier will get the nod for this one. Bernier owns a 2.57 goals-against average over his past five starts but has lost two straight, coming up with 42 saves in a 3-2 defeat at Boston on Jan. 16 and surrendering seven goals at San Jose a week earlier.

Bernier made 22 saves in Toronto's 5-4 home overtime loss to the Lightning on Dec. 15, in which Kucherov and Vladislav Namestnikov each posted a goal and an assist.

The Maple Leafs have lost three straight at Tampa Bay and five of the last seven overall in the series.

Preview: Flyers (18-18) at Capitals (33-8)

Date: January 27, 2016 8:00 PM EDT

With two weather postponements and the All-Star break, the Washington Capitals will end up playing one game in 13 days before returning to action Feb. 2.

That one game might prove to not be all that taxing, with the Philadelphia Flyers visiting Wednesday night needing to beat the best team in hockey to avoid entering the break with a four-game losing streak. The Capitals, meanwhile, are in position to match the longest home winning streak in franchise history.

Washington (35-8-3) had the first two of a five-game homestand straddling the break postponed due to the East Coast snowstorm over the weekend, so it hasn't played since a 6-3 win in Columbus on Jan. 19.

Nicklas Backstrom scored twice and Evgeny Kuznetsov had four assists, giving the him seven in his last two games and 10 points in four. Andre Burakovsky scored and has seven of his 17 points in the last five games, while Marcus Johansson has a goal in three straight.

"Right now it feels like we have good balance in the group," Backstrom said. "We're working hard, all four lines."

The power play was 2 for 2 with goals from Backstrom and Alex Ovechkin, giving the Capitals an 11-for-32 mark in the last 11 games. Even so, coach Barry Trotz probably isn't displeased with the extra time off.

"I thought we lacked a little bit of juice today," Trotz told the team's official website. "I think the three (games) in four (nights) caught up with us a little bit. And I thought (the Blue Jackets) came out really well. I thought (goaltender Braden Holtby) was really good.

" ... Obviously our power play set the tone; we scored right away so we just kept them out there and we got two. That gave us some separation."

Refreshed, the Capitals are in position to match a 13-game home winning streak from 2009-10 as their longest ever.

Washington opened the season series with a 5-2 win at Philadelphia on Nov. 12, though the Flyers have taken six of the last eight meetings.

Philadelphia (20-18-8) also had a game postponed Saturday but returned Monday to similar results - a 3-2 home loss to Boston for its third straight one-goal regulation defeat. The Flyers fell behind 2-0 in the first period before Wayne Simmonds scored twice, but they were denied a point on Brett Connolly's goal with 1:54 left.

"You push so hard all night to try and get a point out of it and come up empty-handed," center Brayden Schenn told the team's official website. "So we have to try and throw this one behind us because if we dwell on this one too much, we're going to go into Washington and it's not going to be a pretty game if we keep thinking about this one."

The losing streak has come with the Flyers going 5 for 13 on the power play, but they've wiped that out in the last two games by going 4 for 8 on the penalty kill.

Steve Mason is expected to be in goal for the Flyers. He's faced an average of 35.8 shots in his last four games and is in danger of matching a season-worst four-game losing streak.

He's gone 5-4-2 with a 3.34 goals-against average in his last 12 games against Washington.

Holtby is 24-2-2 with a 1.94 GAA over his last 29 games but has posted a 3.26 mark and 3-4-3 record in his last 11 appearances in the series.

Preview: Predators (21-18) at Flames (20-23)

Date: January 27, 2016 9:30 PM EDT

While the Calgary Flames can boast some very impressive accomplishments this season, they would surely exchange those for being in better position at the All-Star break.

Calgary heads into its final game before the layoff Wednesday night looking to rebound from a disappointing road trip in a matchup with the Nashville Predators.

The Flames ended a five-year playoff drought last season and surprised many with a first-round win over Vancouver before falling to Anaheim in the Western Conference semifinals.

With that success came expectations, and Calgary has been unable to meet those through the first half.

Although the Flames (21-23-3) won seven straight in December - their longest streak in 10 years - and set a franchise record with 11 consecutive home victories, they are 13th in the conference and 10 points out of a playoff spot.

A slow start and failure to capitalize on the power play sent Calgary to a 2-1 loss at Dallas on Monday, capping a 1-3-1 trip. Joe Colborne scored early in the third period after Karri Ramo allowed two goals 80 seconds apart in the second.

'We kind of woke up too late to play,' said Ramo, whose team was outshot 10-3 in the opening period. 'Against a team like that, you have to start pushing right away.'

Calgary was scoreless on five power-play chances for the second straight game and is 2 for 21 in the past six.

"We got to start from the get-go next game," captain Mark Giordano said. "We have one more before the break that we have to have, and then we'll get some rest and go from there."

It's no surprise that Johnny Gaudreau's production is tied directly to Calgary's success. The Flames are 11-2-0 in games Gaudreau scores at least one goal and 10-21-3 when he fails to find the net.

He's also been a much more productive player at home, tallying 17 goals and 33 of his team-leading 46 points there. He has just three goals and 13 points in 24 road contests.

Nashville (23-18-8) has an opportunity to head into the break with its longest win streak of the season after beating Vancouver 2-1 on Tuesday. James Neal snapped a tie with 4:44 remaining and Pekka Rinne turned aside 28 shots to keep the Predators perfect on their four-game trip through Canada.

'We're fighting to play for a Stanley Cup here," Neal said. "And right now with how tight the West is, you have to do anything you can to grab points to get into the playoffs. That's where our team is at.'

Defense and goaltending have keyed Nashville's three straight wins. After allowing 3.5 goals during a 2-6-2 stretch, the Predators have surrendered one in each game during the run.

Rinne has a .963 save percentage in those three games but has only played once this season on consecutive days. He's also never fared well in Calgary, going 1-5-0 with a 3.48 goals-against average in nine starts.

Backup Carter Hutton stopped 29 shots in a 3-0 victory over Minnesota on Jan. 16 in his most recent appearance.

He could be asked to help the Predators win four consecutive road games for the first time since Dec. 31, 2010-Jan. 8, 2011.

Kris Russell's overtime goal lifted the Flames to a 2-1 victory at Nashville on Dec. 15, their fourth consecutive win in the series.

The Predators are 8-1-3 against Canadian teams this season.

Re: NHL Betting Info. 1/27

Preview: Avalanche (25-22) at Kings (28-15)

Date: January 27, 2016 10:30 PM EDT

Though Semyon Varlamov has yet to know the extent of his legal troubles, they've already impacted the Colorado Avalanche in the short term.

With their No. 1 goaltender still away from the team, the Avalanche attempt to shake off a lopsided loss when they visit the Pacific Division-leading Los Angeles Kings Wednesday night.

Varlamov's superb play carried Colorado (26-22-3) to four consecutive wins entering Tuesday's game at San Jose, which he missed as a defendant in a civil trial brought by his ex-girlfriend over an alleged domestic violence incident in October 2013. In his absence, fill-ins Calvin Pickard and Roman Will surrendered five goals on 23 shots as the Avalanche were routed 6-1.

Varlamov had yielded only four goals total during the streak, and his performance has been instrumental to Colorado's rise in the standings over the past two months. He's amassed a 13-4-2 record and a 2.23 goals-against average in 19 starts since Dec. 7.

Near the bottom of the league in points entering December, the Avalanche have gone 17-8-2 since to climb to eighth in the Western Conference.

After turning in two straight solid efforts that included a 27-save shutout of New Jersey on Jan. 14, Pickard allowed four goals on 20 shots in two periods against the Sharks. He's expected to draw another start Wednesday despite dealing with a flu bug that's also affected a few other Avalanche players.

'I don't want to use the word `distraction' but we had three guys sick this morning," coach Patrick Roy said. "It's hard enough to play when you're 100 percent.'

Pickard was pulled in the first period of his lone career meeting with Los Angeles (30-15-3), a 5-2 Colorado home loss on March 10 that extended the Kings' recent success in this series. The 23-year-old allowed three goals on eight shots.

The Kings won their sixth straight over Colorado with a 2-1 victory at Staples Center on Oct. 18, but Varlamov recorded 30 saves and Tyson Barrie had two goals and two assists as the Avalanche won 4-1 in Denver on Jan. 4.

Colorado went 3 of 5 on the power play in that matchup but is 2 of 23 over its last nine games. The Avalanche have 10 goals total in their past six as they face longtime nemesis Jonathan Quick.

Quick is 13-4-1 with a 2.25 GAA in 19 career starts against Colorado and owns a 1.32 GAA in winning his last six. The All-Star has been particularly dominant on home ice, where he's 8-1-1 with a 1.57 GAA in 10 starts and registered 22 saves in the most recent matchup at Staples Center.

Quick does enter this one having allowed three goals each in consecutive losses to Minnesota and Arizona. He hasn't lost three straight since season-opening defeats to San Jose, Arizona and Vancouver.

The Kings avoided their own three-game skid with a comeback Sunday in San Jose. After Vincent Lecavalier tied the game with 12.2 seconds left in regulation, Marian Gaborik scored with 53.8 seconds remaining in overtime to give Los Angeles a 3-2 victory.

'To pull off a win like this, it showed the character of this team and being resilient and getting timely goals,' center Anze Kopitar said. 'We'll certainly take it.'

Gaborik ended a 10-game goal drought while the rejuvenated Lecavalier scored his fourth in six games, matching his total in his final 45 with Philadelphia. The 35-year-old was acquired from the Flyers on Jan. 6.

The Kings' Tyler Toffoli and Colorado's Matt Duchene, both of whom lead their teams with 22 goals, each have two in the season series.

Grand Salami - January

The Grand Salami in pro hockey is decided by adding up all the goals scored in every game scheduled for that particular day. You can wager on 'over' or 'under' the Grand Salami total. The total is set by adding up all listed 'over/under' odds for each game on that particular day.

Note: The Grand Salami will have no action if any game is suspended or cancelled before the regulation time of three twenty minute periods. Also, regardless of the number of goals scored during the shoot out portion of the overtime, the final scored recorded for the game will give the winning team on more goal than its opponent based on the score at the end of regulation time.

*The majority of sportsbooks do not put out a total on the Grand Salami when there is only one game on the card. For tracking purposes, we will continue to show the 'over/under' for goals and combined goals scored on days with just one game.

Preview: Toronto at Tampa Bay
When: 7:00 PM ET, Wednesday, January 27, 2016
Where: Amalie Arena, Tampa, Florida
The Tampa Bay Lightning attempt to finish off a strong month with another victory when they host the struggling Toronto Maple Leafs on Wednesday. The Lightning have won eight of their 10 games in January, despite a 5-2 loss at Florida on Saturday, to climb back into a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference and build a five-game winning streak at home.
Tampa Bay, which led the league with 32 home wins last season en route to an appearance in the Stanley Cup Final, struggled at Amalie Arena before sweeping a four-game homestand prior to the loss to the Panthers. Nikita Kucherov has led the way for the Lightning with points in eight straight games and four goals in his last four contests. Toronto earned points in three straight (1-0-2) before losing at Florida 5-1 on Tuesday and fell into a virtual tie with Edmonton and Columbus for last in the league with 43 points. The Maple Leafs need their power play to wake up after going 0-for-23 over their last eight contests.
TV: 7 p.m. ET, Sportsnet, TVA (Toronto), Sun Sports (Tampa Bay)
ABOUT THE MAPLE LEAFS (17-21-9): Nazem Kadri registered the only goal for Toronto on Tuesday, his second in two games and 10th overall, while Leo Komarov leads the team with 31 points but has notched just one in his last four contests. Jonathan Bernier could get the start in the final game before the All-Star break after James Reimer allowed more than three goals for the first time in 20 contests on Tuesday. PA Parenteau has gone nine games without a goal after scoring twice in a victory over Anaheim on Jan. 6.
ABOUT THE LIGHTNING (26-18-4): Andrei Vasilevskiy (7-4-0), who has won his last five decisions, is expected to start Wednesday as Ben Bishop (19-14-3, 2.02 goals-against average, .926 save percentage) gets more rest before heading to the All-Star Game. Captain and fellow All-Star Steven Stamkos is second on the team to Kucherov (41) with 37 points but has been held without a goal in five consecutive contests. Defenseman Victor Hedman has recorded 10 points in his last eight games.
OVERTIME
1. Tampa Bay RW Ryan Callahan is playing strong defensively but has registered just one point in 11 games and one goal in his last 34 contests.
2. Toronto D Jake Gardiner snapped a seven-game point drought Tuesday with an assist on Kadri’s goal.
3. The Lightning have won five of their last seven meetings with the Maple Leafs and three straight at home.

Re: NHL Betting Info. 1/27

Preview: Philadelphia at Washington
When: 8:00 PM ET, Wednesday, January 27, 2016
Where: Verizon Center, Washington, District Of Columbia
Mother Nature was the only foe strong enough to prevent the Washington Capitals from emerging victorious at the Verizon Center of late. After seeing its last two contests postponed due to a massive snowstorm, Washington will attempt to match the longest home winning streak in franchise history on Wednesday when it hosts the Metropolitan Division-rival Philadelphia Flyers.
Former Flyer Justin Williams has been on a tear, collecting five goals and four assists in his last six games, including one of each in the Capitals’ 5-2 triumph over Philadelphia on Nov. 12. Williams set up a pair of tallies in Washington’s 6-3 win over Columbus on Jan. 19 before joining the rest of his mates in shoveling their way out of the approximate two feet of snow that blasted the Mid-Atlantic states. The Flyers likely feel snowed in as they attempt to prevent losing their fourth in a row when they face the league-leading Capitals. Captain Claude Giroux has recorded seven points (two goals, five assists) in the last six games and also tallied in the first meeting versus Washington, which as won 12 straight at home.
TV: 8 p.m. ET, NBCSN
ABOUT THE FLYERS (20-18-8): Although admittedly nursing an undisclosed injury, Michal Neuvirth is expected to receive his first crack at the team that selected him in the second round of the 2006 draft. Neuvirth was limping significantly after Monday’s 3-2 loss to Boston, but participated in practice the following day and deemed himself “good enough” to play. Fellow goaltender Steve Mason did not participate for the second straight day, although coach Dave Hakstol stressed to reporters that it was an “optional” practice.
ABOUT THE CAPITALS (35-8-3): Veteran forward Mike Richards isn’t putting too much stock in facing the team with which he spent six seasons before heading to Los Angeles in 2011. “It was a long time ago,” the fourth-line center told Philly.com. “Four, five years ago now. There might be one player left on the team that I played with, so it really doesn’t make much of a difference to me anymore.” For the record, there were two (Giroux and R.J. Umberger), but Richards is focused on denting the scoresheet for the first time since joining the Capitals.
OVERTIME
1. Washington D Karl Alzner is expected to play in his 423rd consecutive game on Wednesday, surpassing Bobby Carpenter for the franchise record.
2. Philadelphia has scored five power-play goals during its three-game losing skid and surprisingly had just two during an impressive 5-0-1 stretch (Jan. 5-17).
3. The Capitals’ last won 13 in a row from Jan. 5-March 6, 2010.

Preview: Nashville at Calgary
When: 9:30 PM ET, Wednesday, January 27, 2016
Where: Scotiabank Saddledome, Calgary, Alberta
The Nashville Predators attempt to complete their four-game Western Canadian trip with a perfect record when they visit the Calgary Flames on Wednesday in the final contest before the All-Star break for both teams. Nashville already has posted victories in Winnipeg, Edmonton and Vancouver, allowing one goal in each triumph after being swept on a four-game trek earlier this month.
Predators defenseman Mattias Ekholm is riding a four-game point streak after notching an assist against the Canucks on Tuesday and raising his career-high point total to 21. Calgary returns home from a disappointing 1-3-1 road trip that concluded with Monday’s 2-1 loss at Dallas. The trek followed a stretch during which the Flames played eight of nine at home and went 4-4-0 at Scotiabank Saddledome, scoring four or more goals in three of the wins and fewer than two in three of the losses. Calgary took the opener of the three-game season series Dec. 15, posting a 2-1 victory on the road after defenseman Kris Russell scored 1:23 into overtime.
TV: 9:30 p.m. ET, FSN Tennessee (Nashville), Sportsnet (Calgary)
ABOUT THE PREDATORS (23-18-8): James Neal leads the team with 18 goals and is tied with captain Shea Weber for third in points with 30 after netting the winning tally with 4:44 remaining in the third period Tuesday. The 28-year-old Neal is on the verge of reaching the 20-goal plateau in each of his eight NHL seasons. Defenseman Roman Josi is first on the club with 34 points but has recorded only three during his last eight games.
ABOUT THE FLAMES (21-23-3): Johnny Gaudreau is proving to be the real deal after being a finalist for the Calder Trophy last season. The 22-year-old native of New Jersey needs four goals to match his rookie total of 24 and is tied for third in the league with six game-winning tallies. Captain Mark Giordano needs one assist to reach 200 for his career.
OVERTIME
1. Nashville has won three straight contests for the first time since Oct. 17-22.
2. Calgary C Joe Colborne has scored in each of his last two games after going without one for nine contests.
3. Predators G Pekka Rinne has allowed fewer than two goals in three consecutive games for the first time since the first three contests of the season.

Where: Staples Center, Los Angeles, California
The Colorado Avalanche look to enter the All-Star break with five wins in their last six games when they visit the Pacific Division-leading Los Angeles Kings on Wednesday. Colorado had its four-game winning streak snapped with Tuesday’s 6-1 loss at San Jose, which dropped the club to 1-1-0 on its three-game road trip.
Nathan MacKinnon is tied with Matt Duchene for the team lead with 40 points after scoring for the second time in three games Tuesday. Los Angeles avoided its first three-game skid since the beginning of the season by edging the Sharks 3-2 in overtime on the road Sunday. Vincent Lecavalier has rediscovered his scoring touch on the West Coast after being acquired from Philadelphia, scoring a goal in four of his last six games. The Avalanche and Kings split their first two meetings this season, with each club winning at home.
TV: 10:30 p.m. ET, NBCSN, Sportsnet
ABOUT THE AVALANCHE (26-22-3): Roman Will was recalled from San Antonio of the American Hockey League on Tuesday and made his NHL debut that evening, allowing one goal on three shots in one period after relieving Calvin Pickard. Cody McLeod appeared in his 600th game Tuesday, joining Milan Hejduk (1,020), Joe Sakic (870) and Adam Foote (763) as the only players to reach the plateau with the Avalanche. The exclusive club likely will have a fifth member soon as Alex Tanguay has appeared in 586 contests with Colorado.
ABOUT THE KINGS (30-15-3): Milan Lucic, who is fourth on the team in both goals (12) and points (29), will return to the lineup after serving a one-game suspension for roughing Arizona defenseman Kevin Connauton on Saturday. The 27-year-old left wing tops Los Angeles with five game-winning goals — two shy of his career high set in 2010-11 with Boston. Tyler Toffoli leads the team with 22 goals but enters Wednesday with a four-game drought.
OVERTIME
1. Avalanche G Semyon Varlamov will miss his second straight game as he attends to a legal matter in Denver.
2. Los Angeles C Jeff Carter has gone five games without a goal and has scored only two during his last 16 contests.
3. Colorado C Mikhail Grigorenko sat out Tuesday’s game with an illness and is questionable to face the Kings.
