A pair of outstanding defensive teams clash in this one. Boston is third in the league in goals allowed, off a 3-2 win at Carolina as a dog. The offense has been average at #15 in goals scored. The Bruins are 33-18 UNDER the total on the road against a team with a winning record, including 12-4-1 UNDER versus teams with winning home records. Nashville is second in the league in goals allowed, off a 4-1 win at Tampa Bay. After missing five games with a knee injury, Predators goalie Pekka Rinne came back strong with 42 saves. Rinne (4-1-0, 1.91 goals-against average, .940 save percentage) is back tonight. Nashville can play any style and look for Boston to focus on defense, with the Bruins 21-7 UNDER the total when playing their second straight road contest. Back the UNDER.
