Rating:
The Bruins have won four of their last six games and three of their last four home games. They are playing well offensively and scored nine goals in their last three home games. They’ve also played well on special teams, converting over 22 percent of their power play opportunities. The Rangers have done a good job of killing penalties, but they’re not playing well defensively, giving up 13 goals in their last three road games, so expect them to have a hard time slowing down the Bruins in this game. The Rangers have lost three of their last four games and two of their last three road games. They have struggled offensively in recent games, scoring only seven goals in their last three games. They’ve done a better job on special teams, converting over 30 percent of their power play opportunities. The Bruins are one of the best teams in the league when it comes to killing penalties and they’re playing well defensively, giving up only seven goals in their last four home games, so expect them to keep New York’s offense in check. Go with Boston to cover the spread.
