The Boston Bruins are an absolute powerhouse this year. Winners of 6 straight, and 9 of their last 10 games, they have allowed just 7 goals in their last 6 wins while scoring 24. They are also getting lights-out goaltending from Ullmark, while sporting the top rated offense and defense in the league.
How do the Lightning stack up? They have a top ten (just) offense, but can't compare on defense (13th) or special teams. Vasilevskiy has been very good in his last two games, but a bit more average than one would expect for the season, with a .909 save %. The Lightning have a 4 game winning streak of their own, but it includes a pair of overtime wins.
A healthy Bruins team starts a very tough road trip today but are 5-2 on the road this season. It is hard to go against the kind of dominant and consistent brand of hockey they've shown to date this season. As good as the Lightning have been at home, I am taking the Bruins to win today. You won't see better odds for Boston very soon.
