Trends

Boston is 7-1 in their last 8 road games and 41-12 in their last 53 games. The under is 3-0-1 in Boston’s last 4 road games. Florida is 4-1 in their last 5 Saturday games and 0-6 in their last 6 games played on 0 days rest. The over is 5-0 in Florida’s last 5 games. The home team is 6-0 in these two teams last 6 head to head meetings.

Pick

Boston comes into this game off of a very rare regulation loss and will look to bounce back against a Florida team that has allowed 17 goals in their last three games. Boston is 16-5-1 on the road this season has defeated Florida twice already this season. The previous three matchups went over 6.5 goals and I think we are going to see another high scoring game here. I like the over.
