THURSDAY NIGHT LIGHTNING @ BRUINS *TOP PLAY*
(NHL) Tampa Bay vs. Boston,
Money Line: -115.00 Boston (Home)
Result: Loss
I like the price we get on the Boston Bruins, one of the hottest teams in the league, when they host the Tampa Bay Lightning home at TD Garden Thursday night.

This is a very tough spot for the visitors who are off to a rather slow start, will be playing on one day of rest and close out a six-game road trip. Boston on the other hand will play on two days rest and this marks its third straight home game after beating New Jersey and Anaheim by a combined score of 7-2 in the first two.

The Lightning won three of the four meetings between the teams last season, but I expect Boston to come through in this one.

10* play on Boston Bruins.
