Golden Knights at Bruins projected goalies
Carter Hart (4-3-1, 2.76 GAA, .889 SV%) vs. Jeremy Swayman (7-3-1, 2.35 GAA, .912 SV%, 1 SO)
Hart hasn't played since Oct. 24 after suffering an undisclosed injury during a morning skate. He was in net for a 2-1 OT loss at the Columbus Blue Jackets, stopping 18 of 20. Hart is believed to be healthy and ready for this one. He didn't face Boston last season.
Swayman allowed 4 goals on 18 shots in a 4-1 loss at the St. Louis Blues Thursday. He has now lost 3 of 4 starts. He faced Vegas once last season and allowed 6 goals on 37 shots in a 6-5 loss early in the season.
Golden Knights at Bruins picks and predictions
Prediction
Bruins 4, Golden Knights 3
Moneyline
The BRUINS (+100) are great at home, and VGK is 3-2-1 on the road. It'll be close, but I like the home side.
Puck line/Against the spread
No bet here. PASS.
Over/Under
VGK is 10-5-0 O/U on the season, and Boston is 6-9-0. The Over has cashed in 7 of 10 meetings between the clubs. Sticking with those trends, I'll go OVER 6 (-120).
Best prop bet
As mentioned, Marner has assists in 9 straight games and remains at a reasonable price. Give me MITCH MARNER OVER 0.5 ASSISTS (-125).
