The Boston Bruins are quietly racking up the points again, and they’ve been consistent on the road. The San Jose Sharks have had issues all year stringing wins together, and they haven’t been great at home as of late. Also, the Sharks haven’t beaten the Bruins since March 2016. I’ll side with history here and take the Bruins and the PL.
