Bruins vs Mammoth Prediction
The Mammoth snagged two wins to stop the bleeding, but it’s not enough to forget the bad play over the last couple of weeks. The Mammoth still disappears offensively for stretches, and they’ve lost 10 times on the road. The Bruins have quietly played solid hockey over the last couple of weeks to change the direction of their season, and they’re at home, where they’ve stacked 11 wins. The Bruins are playing the better hockey right now and are at home, where they’re most comfortable. The price is cheap. Give me the Bruins to keep the positive momentum rolling.
