Boston at Carolina

Boston has owned the Metropolitan division, 31-11 against them. The Bruins are still alive for a playoff spot and just got David Kreji back. They had a solid effort Saturday, scoring three goals in the first period, two from Milan Lucic, to help beat the Metropolitan Division-leading New York Rangers 4-2. The Bruins are 51-23 against a team with a losing record. Carolina has a losing record with no offense, 27th in the NHL in goals scored and only 18th in goals allowed. Carolina is 2-6 at home and had to play yesterday, and the Hurricanes are 21-47 playing on no days rest. Boston goalie Tukka Rask is 2-0-1 with a 0.97 goals-against average against the Hurricanes, and the Bruins are 4-1 in the last five meetings. Play Boston.
