Result:
LOSS

The Boston Bruins exorcised a demon when they swept the Flyers four games to none to get to the conference finals. If you remember last year they went up 3-0 on the Flyers then lost four straight to get bounced from the playoffs. They had an extra bounce in their step the entire series, extracting revenge, and may find themselves in a bit of an emotionally bad spot here. Tampa Bay looked like they were headed for an early exit in the playoffs, falling behind Pittsburgh three games to one, but rose from the dead with three straight wins to take the series. They used the momentum to roll over Washington in a four-game sweep, and have now won seven in a row. They have also lost just one game in their last 12 by more than a single goal, and just two of their last 19, so I like their chances here on the puckline. The Lightning have also come back to play to a 26-10-2 mark to the UNDER in their last 38 after scoring 5 or more in their previous game. Boston has played low at home vs. teams with a winning road record at 15-7-1 to the UNDER in their last 23. Play Tampa Bay on the puckline as well as the UNDER.
