Boston Bruins vs LA Kings Prediction

The Boston Bruins bounced back nicely from a loss to the Panthers, and they’re at home, where they’re usually a tough out. This is a very early start time, and it’s even earlier for a Los Angeles team that runs on a West Coast clock. We could see a sluggish performance from the Kings on Saturday afternoon. Home teams typically have the edge in early start times. Give me the Bruins and the somewhat reasonable price.
