Bruins present challenges for Lightning
Boston can put an end to Tampa Bay's two-game home win streak when they visit St. Pete Times Forum on Monday night.
Boston brings a 1-2-0 overall mark (0-2-0 in the division) into this game versus a Tampa Bay team carrying a 2-1-0 record.
The goal judges could be busy in this one, as oddsmakers opened OVER/UNDER betting at 6.5. On the side, the line opened at 155 for the Lightning.
After giving up 6 goals in a win against the Penguins, Boston fans expect their defence to hold the fort better against the Lightning. If not, this one will likely go into the books as a loss.
John Tortorella's troops were at home against the Panthers last game and came away with a 2-1 win, a game that went under 6. Oddsmakers had them as 190-point favorites in that one.
Some trends to consider:
Boston is 2-3-2 SU in their last 7 games after scoring more than 6 goals
Boston is 9-11-6 OU in their last 26 games
Boston is 5-2-0 OU in their last 7 games against the Tampa Bay
Boston is 4-1-0 OU in their last 5 away
Tampa Bay is 5-0-0 OU in their last 5 games at home against Boston
Tampa Bay is 8-2-0 SU in their last 10 games after scoring 1 to 2 goals
Tampa Bay is 5-2-0 OU in their last 7 games against the Boston
Tampa Bay is 4-2-0 OU in their last 6 at home
Next up:
Boston at Florida, Thursday, October 13
Tampa Bay home to Buffalo, Thursday, October 13
