Bruins vs Predators Prediction

Neither the Predators nor the Bruins are playing great hockey at the moment, so this isn’t a game I’m excited to bet. However, we’re here and somebody has to win. The difference is the Bruins are at home where 18 of their 28 wins have come, and the Predators are 6-20-4 on the road this season. That’s a massive difference in the road / home splits, and it makes the Bruins the easy lean on Tuesday night. The Bruins have also won seven of the last 10 games against the Predators, and five of those wins were decided by two or more goals. Give me the Bruins and the cheap price.
