Boston -1.5 +135
You know all the talk about parity in the NHL? Forget ‘bout it. You won’t see any of that here.
Ted Nolan called them a pee wee hockey team and he wasn’t far off. Atrocious lapses of defense, unable to gain the offensive zone, hell unable to get the puck out of their own zone. Passing is pathetic, they aren’t physical, skate like slugs, for every shot they get on net they give up two. Unprovoked turnovers, can’t finish shots, or hits, or perhaps just unwilling to. That’s the worst part of all of this. They show zero heart.
The Buffalo Sabres are just what the doctor ordered for the struggling Boston Bruins who have lost 4 of their opening 6 games and have San Jose on deck. No need to get into stats with this contest. In one corner you have a franchise tanking a season for the Connor McDavid sweepstakes. In the other a team that was just embarrassed at the Bell Centre, lost to Colorado with .2 seconds left in regulation, and looking for someone to take it out on. This is liable to be a very lopsided match. Bruins can name the score.
