The Boston Bruins are on quite a heater at the moment, and they’ve done a lot of their best work on the road. The Detroit Red Wings are a club that can’t get out of their own way, they stink defensively, and playing at home hasn’t helped all that much. Also, the Bruins have beaten up on the Red Wings over the years. Give me the Bruins, and I’ll take the PL to shave down the ML price.
