  • The ‘Over 1.5 Goals Period 3′ market has hit in each of the Bruins’ last 14 day games.
  • The Bruins have lost the second period in each of their last four games as favorites.

  • The Panthers have won seven of their last eight day games.

Panthers vs Bruins prediction

Massive game in terms of who wins the Atlantic. The Bruins damn near clinch the division title with a win, while the Panthers stay in the race if they claim the victory. The Panthers have the talent to spring the upset, and they’re 26-11-3 on the road. However, the Bruins are 23-9-6 at home, and they’ve won the last 3 games against the Panthers. You don’t get the Bruins and cheap prices often. The Panthers have been riding the struggle bus these last couple of weeks and their defense has taken a back seat. I’ll lay the reasonable price with the Bruins at home.
