Maple Leafs vs Bruins prediction

I considered the Maple Leafs and the plus money because there’s enough offensive talent to give those odds a punchers chance. I also expect more success after struggling in a game 1 loss. However, you don’t get the Bruins as soft home favorites often, and Boston is 25-11-6 at home this season. Also, the Bruins have won 8 straight games against the Maple Leafs. The Bruins have outscored the Maple Leafs 13-3 in the last 3 games. The Maple Leafs haven’t beat the Bruins since November 2022. Give me more bang for my buck, and I’d consider the Maple Leafs. Instead, I’ll side with history and lay the cheap price with the Bruins on their home ice.
