Boston Bruins vs. Minnesota Wild Prediction

I’m on the Bruins in this one. It’s a battle of two of the hotter teams over the last week or so, but I think the value here is on Boston. The Bruins are catching a nice plus price when their offense has been on fire as of late, and while Minnesota looks like they’re back with solid defensive balance and a lot of competitive hockey like we’re used to seeing from Minnesota, I just think that this price should be closer to a coin flip so give me Boston here.
