Senators vs Bruins Prediction

I’m on the Senators here. I’m tempted by the Bruins and the plus money considering how solid Boston’s looked in their games against Florida and Tampa Bay despite selling off Brad Marchand at the trade deadline. However, Boston’s still been a hard team to trust on the road this season and Ottawa’s played their best hockey by far at home on the year. I think that the Senators could really take advantage of an opportunity to kick teams when they’re down, especially a rival like Boston. I’m with Ottawa in this one.
