Stanley Cup Finals live streams 2022: How to watch Avalanche vs Lightning game 3 online right now
The Stanley Cup Finals live streams go to Tampa Bay
When you tune in to watch NHL Stanley Cup Finals live streams online tonight, you get an Avalanche vs Lightning game 3 that's increasingly hard to predict. The odds are still going slightly in Tampa's favor, though.
Colorado won game 2 in a 7-0 flurry that can only be described as an avalanche. Returning home, Tampa Bay hopes lightning can strike at least once this series.
Next game date and time: Game 3 is today (Monday, June 20) @ 8 p.m.
Where to watch in the U.S.: Stanley Cup Finals air on ABC and ESPN Plus. ABC is available on fuboTV , which currently has a 7-day free trial.
Watch from anywhere: with ExpressVPN.
Tampa Bay should be able to make this interesting. Tt's been here before and knows how to win in the playoffs. The only question is if its men hoist Lord Stanley's Cup for a third season in a row.
If your timeline is anything like mine, you'll know that Tampa Bay's veterans — Ondrej Palat, Nikita Kucherov and Steven Stamkos — have been key to its ability to not lose a single playoffs series since the 2019 post-season first-round ejection.
The Stanley Cup Finals continue today (June 20) and then extend as far as (possibly) the end of the month. For game 3, the Lightning is slightly favored to win with a moneyline of +100 (wager $100 to win 100), while the Avs are at -120 (wager $120 to win $100). Here's everything you need to know to watch the Stanley Cup Finals online:
