10* TOTAL DESTRUCTION (+$24,000 ALL SPORTS RUN!)
(NHL) Boston vs. Philadelphia,
Total: 5.50 | -102.00 Under
Result: Loss
The set-up: These are two good teams. Each can score, and each is also good on the defensive end. I think this particular game sets up as a "duel" and defensive affair. Boston is 6-1-2 and Philly is 7-1-2. Philadelphia plays with double revenge here after losing twice to the Bruins already. After a come from behind 5-3 win in the Nation's capital, I think Boston comes out a bit flat here (I had the Bruins on the PUCK LINE in that one, hitting for a big plus-money return.)

The pick: Boston only allows 2.22 GPG this year. Philadelphia has been better offensively than defensively, but note that it's seen the total go "under" in 11 of its last 14 home games in trying to revenge an in-season road loss to an opponent. Look for the men between the pipes to be the main storylines in tomorrow's summaries.

This is a 10* TOTAL DESTRUCTION on the UNDER Bruins/Flyers.
