Red Wings vs Bruins Prediction

I’m on Boston here. I think that Detroit’s better than what they’ve shown in recent games, but the Red Wings are simply in a slump right now. It’s hard to lay this kind of price with them just because of the sentiment that people think they’re due. The Bruins haven’t been as strong on the road this season, but I still think there’s enough in the tank here for a win on the road here, so give me Boston.
