I signed up to cover this game awhile ago now, but as I fill in the details of the available markets I am sorely regretting it.
This one is weird, I don’t really understand why the puck line is the way it is and the total is set under 6.0. It does not make a ton of sense to me.
However, because we are degens we’re going to handicap it anyway right??
These two teams are on opposite trajectories at the moment. The Bruins are 7-2-1 in their last ten games and winners of two straight whereas the Bolts have dropped their last two and are 4-6 in their last ten.
No need to press the panic button if you’re a Tampa Bay fan but nonetheless they are on a bit of a schnide currently.
So with all that in mind let’s dive in for a closer look into this first one of the evening between two eastern conference power houses.
Tampa Bay Lightning
As I stated the Lightning are not playing their best hockey over this last stretch but they are still holding a firm grasp on second place in the Atlantic and are a shoe in to qualify for the playoffs.

They acquired forward Brandon Hagel at the deadline from the Chicago Blackhawks to bolster their depth in the bottom six. Andrew Vasilevsky continues to perform at an incredibly high level as well.
He gets the nod in this one tonight, his current numbers are 2.38 GAA and is rocking a .919 save percentage.
Boston Bruins
The Bruins last ten games have been very impressive to say the least. Swayman is starting to come into his own and the big line continues to dazzle opponents since getting that s#@!bag Brad Marchand back from suspension, new cereal brand and all.
That being said, their seven wins over that ten game stretch we have highlighted have come against weak opponents and being heavy favourites on the moneyline. They consisted of;
Montreal, Winnipeg, Chicago x2, Vegas, Columbus, and the lowly Arizona Coyotes. A favourable schedule for them. Tampa, is a different animal.

I know I said the line confused me and I regretted signing up for this one, but anytime you give me the Bolts at -105 I am likely going to take you up on it.
The Bruins wins over this stretch are not impressive and therefore I wonder how they look against their first real test tonight. Hammer the Lightning on the moneyline everyone!
