Detroit Red Wings vs. Boston Bruins Prediction

I’m on the Bruins here. I just think that the Bruins have been solid at home, and Detroit has not been able to keep the puck out of the back of their net, allowing 16 goals in their last 3 games. The value here for me is on Boston at home where they’ve been at their best this season, so give me Boston in this one.
