Sniffing out wins
up roughly 87 U on the season(I quit keeping precise records a while back and started rounding off)
Boston Bruins* -121 vs Chicago Blackhawks x1
Chicago Blackhawks/Boston Bruins* Over 4½ -140 x1
I thought Soderberg stepped up admirably in Bergerons absence on Saturday. Marchand has struggled mightily in the finals but I think he steps it up a bit tonite.Bruins have been in this situation before and will play their best tonite.Bruins are 7-1 at home in playoffs, with four of last five staying under total; in Chicago's last 15 road games, under is 11-2-2. Five games in this series, three OT finishes, and now Bergeron (internal injuries) spent Saturday nite in the hospital, probably won't play here. Boston is down couple key guys after Campbell got broken leg earlier in playoffs. Bruins are 5-4 when playoff game goes over they won seven of last eight that stayed under the total. Chicago is 5-0 so far in playoffs when game goes over total, 5-5 if game stays under, 3-2 if total pushes. Bruins won 11 of last 15 games overall (4-3 in OT games) since being down 4-1 at the 11:00 mark in Game 7 of 1st round vs Toronto and they were also down in Finals two years ago, but beat Vancouver in Games 6-7 to win Stanley Cup. Bruins need a win here to force Game 7 in Chicago Wednesday night. Hawks won 10 of last 13 games since being down 3-1 in Detroit series. Chicago has one goal on last 26 power plays, while Bruins didn't even have a power play in Game 5. Over last decade, Boston has been down 3-2 in four playoff series and they won Game 6 in all four of those series.
