This is a 10 TOP THURSDAY COMMUNITY CONSENSUS TOTAL on the OVER Bruins/Sabres.

All the numbers, stats and trends point to this one going UNDER the number.

Both teams have struggled offensively over the last month, scoring two goals or less in most of their games.

Buffalo enters having lost 12 in a row. Boston is just 4-6 in its last ten.

Neither team can be happy with its play. Obviously.

This is a great situational call in our opinion though, as we're expecting a wide-open affair here.

Buffalo as well has in fact seen the total go OVER the number in five of its last seven after five or more straight losses in a row.

The Sabres have been poor defensively as well this season, allowing over 3.00 GPG, so Boston's lagging offense also has a big opportunity tonight.

Look for this total to fly OVER before the final horn sounds.

Good luck, NP
