Bruins minus 1 1/2 goals plus $1.25 (puck line) hosting Kings (Early Start)
The Kings have won three in a row beating the Rangers, Devils and Flyers all on the road with two of the victories coming by one goal in overtime and in a shootout. This marks LA’s fourth road game in six days and comes against a frustrated Bruins squad that lost 4-3 to the Rangers on the road in a shootout Wednesday.
The oddsmaker is anticipating a Bruins victory with this huge lay price. I am, too. I believe it’s a kill spot for Boston so I’m going to lay 1 1/2 goals and get a plus price rather than put out such heavy juice.
The Kings have lost 10 of the past 13 times when in action for the fourth time in six days. They are just 2-7-1 versus Atlantic Divison opponents while the Bruins are 6-2-2 versus Pacific Division foes. Boston goalie Tuukka Rask has a strong history against the Kings with a 2.18 GAA and .932 save percentage.
