Senators vs. Bruins Predictions

For my money this is the best game on the NHL slate tonight as teacher and student battle it out on the ice! That’s right Linus Ullmark is heading back to Boston to take on Jeremy Swayman and the Bruins and its one hell of a revenge game! Now that we have the narrative for tonight’s game let’s bet on it and the first thing that comes to mind for me is taking the over. I know the goaltenders are center stage but neither of them has been very good to start the season. 

Ullmark comes into today’s game with a 2-4-0 record and a GAA of 3.02, that’s just not good by his standards. On the Boston side Swayman has a GAA of 3.51 and SV of .894, that is brutal! They also rank 35th and 62nd amongst goalies in goals saved above expected, not good in the analytical categories either! The total sits at just 5.5 goals and that is a number that’s just too low to ignore so give me the over in this game. 

I will give some love to Ullmark though tonight as the Senators allow 29.3 shots per game so he should get some decent work in. His number should be in the mid-20s for saves once they put the lines out today so give me him to go over that number as he’s got revenge on the mind. 

Pick: Senators & Bruins Over 5.5 Goals (-115 on DraftKings)

Pick: Linus Ullmark (OTT) Over TBD Saves (TBD on DraftKings)
