Boston Bruins vs Vancouver Canucks Prediction
The Vancouver Canucks and the plus money is worth a look when you consider they’re 7-1 on the road this season. The problem is we’re not getting enough bang for our buck, and you usually don’t get the Bruins at home at this price. Also, the home team has won 8 of the last 10 games between the Canucks and Bruins. Cheap prices everywhere, I have to lean Bruins because of the home ice.
