Rickenbach NHL *7* OVER 5 goals -132 in Colorado vs Boston @ 10:05 ET - Both these clubs have gone over in all their games so far on the young season. The over is 3-0 in Bruins games and 2-0 in Avalanche games. Both clubs are having trouble keeping the puck out of their own net as Boston has been outscored 16 to 7 in their games and Colorado has a 5-4 loss and a 6-3 win in the books so far this season. The ability to get this total at a 5 is what has me in play here. Neither team has scored less than 2 goals in a game this season and just getting this game to a score of 2-2 guarantees no worse than a push with this over at 5 goals because the game would have to get to 3-2 at some point. Both of these clubs are doing great on the power play and struggling on the penalty kill early this season. As we know, special teams of course can play a "special" role in helping games get over the total and that is likely to be the case here as well. Also, the fact this is a non-conference match-up also impacts how the game is played. There tends to be a little more open ice and a little less physicality in these non-conferene games since they are less impacting in the standings. It certainly has a much different tone than, as an example, big divisional match-ups. The Avalanche are 12-5 to the over in home games with a posted total of 5 goals or less. The Bruins are 7-2 to the over when they enter a game on a losing streak of 3 games or more. Play OVER 5 goals in Colorado as a *7* play Wednesday.
