BRUINS/OILERS: A BREAKOUT?
(NHL) Boston vs. Edmonton,
Money Line: -121.00 Edmonton (Home)
Result: Loss
Fatigue may be a factor for the Bruins tonight after a tough and embarrassing shootout loss against the Canucks last night. Ullmark is expected to return in the net for the Bruins, and it is difficult to say if that is good news. He has been very uneven this year and could be outmatched by the Oilers. The Bruins defense can keep the score down but they struggle to put the puck in the net. The Oilers, of course, are the reverse. They have been on a bit of a slump of late so the odds on the Oilers at home are favorable. Better rested than the Bruins, and no doubt motivated to get back in the win column, this is a perfect opportunity to bounce back, catching a weary and unimpressive Bruins team on the Road. Oilers to win.
