Result:
LOSS

Boston's top line of Patrice Bergeron, David Pastrnak, and Brad Marchand was too much for the Lightning in Game 1 as they combined for 11 points. And Rick Nash added two goals for the Bruins. Tuukka Rask had 34 saves and Boston now has won eight of the last 10 meetings and 43 of the last 61 meetings against Tampa Bay, including six of the last seven on the road. The Bruins are 25-10 their last 35 with one day of rest and 11-4 their last 15 versus an opponent that allowed at least five goals its previous game. The Lightning is 1-8 its last nine games against a team that scored five or more goals its previous game. Rask now has a 2.36 goals-against average and a .917 save percentage on the season. This one won't be as easy as the Lightning hadn't played for a week, but the Bruins still have the upper hand with its high-scoring trio. Take the Bruins.
