I will take the Over in this Matchup of Penguins at Bruins for these reasons:

- Bruins have looked bad lately offensively, but they get a break here against Pittsburgh who are allowing the most goals per game this season. Boston still has the most goals scored per game this season, and the most penalty kills.

- Boston aren’t the best defenders either, allowing 3 goals per game, and against a top three shot attempting team like Pittsburgh, they are bound to give up 2-3 goals here.

- Each team is coming off high scoring matchups as well, vs inferior teams, and though this may call for a low scoring affair, I can’t bet on either teams puckline with confidence, but for this to be a 3-4 win for the Bruins sure is close a good bet for an over.

- The Last 3 meetings in 2024 have gone over 5.5 goals

Official Play: Over 5.5 goals

Side Bet: Bruins Team total over 2.5

Hail Mary: Brad Marchand Over 2.5 shots
