The Ottawa Senators (34-31-5) and Boston Bruins (53-11-5) meet Tuesday at TD Garden. Opening puck drop in the Atlantic Division tussle is slated for 7 p.m. ET (ESPN+).

Ottawa snapped a 5-game losing streak (0-4-1) with a 2-1 Monday win at Pittsburgh. The Senators coughed up 26 goals over those 5 games. The result was better Monday, but Ottawa did allow its most shots in a single game (49) since Dec. 27.

That Dec. 27 game — when the Sens allowed 51 shots — was against these Bruins. Boston lost that game 3-2 in a shootout and is 1-1-1 in 3 meetings with Ottawa. The Atlantic’s 1st-place team beat the Buffalo Sabres 7-0 on  Sunday. The Bruins are back on home ice after a 3-2-0 road trip.

Senators at Bruins picks and predictions

Prediction

Bruins 4, Senators 1

Moneyline

PASS. The Bruins are a lean but only somewhere in the middle (-250 perhaps) and only for bankrolls large enough to absorb the cost.

Puck line/Against the spread

The Bruins are a plus-13 in goal differential over their last 3 games. Look for them to continue that roll playing against an Ottawa club on the ice for a 2nd straight night. Six of Boston’s last 7 wins at home have been by multi-goal margins BACK THE BRUINS -1.5 (-120).

Over/Under

Too much of a question mark in the Ottawa net PASS.
