Stanley Cup Final prop bets for Game 2

1st period 1st goal: Lightning (+140)

Colorado’s speed shellshocked Tampa Bay in Game 1 as the visitors had trouble adjusting to the thin Mile High air. A lesser team would have folded, but the 2-time defending champs turned up the heat and tied it with 2 goals in the 2nd period. Look for the Lightning to force the tempo early and light the lamp first Saturday.

Regulation time winner (incl. tie) & total goals: Avalanche & Over 5.5 (+230)

We took this in Game 1 and it almost cashed, but Colorado needed a couple of minutes in OT to get it done. Tampa Bay could steal this game, but Colorado has the biggest home-ice advantage in hockey in terms of conditioning coming into question.
