Boston Bruins vs Ottawa Senators Prediction
The Boston Bruins are usually at their best at home, and you often end up with inflated lines on their home ice. This line is reasonable. The Ottawa Senators continue to struggle on the defensive side, and they’re 1-5 on the road this season. It’s hard to take the Senators seriously in a spot like this on the road. The Bruins have won 4 of their last 5 games against the Senators. Give me the Bruins and the fair price.
