But that doesn\u2019t mean that they\u2019re a bad team at all. In fact, Boston is playing pretty good hockey right now, with five wins in its last six games, including an overtime triumph in the Winter Classic. The Bruins play stingy defense and the netminding tandem of Tim Thomas and Tuukka Rask works beautifully.<\/p>\n<p>In the Rangers, the Bruins face a similar squad, as the Broadway Blueshirts also play physical hockey and do a decent job keeping opponents off the scoreboard.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 3px solid #FFFFFF;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bodogaffiliate.com\/resources\/ca-banners\/sportsbook\/square\/250x250\/250x250h-sportsbook.gif\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Sports Betting at the Sportsbook\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/> The Rangers are hot\/cold, having followed up a four-game winning streak by losing three of their last four games.\u00a0 Marian Gaborik has been absolutely phenomenal, notching 27 goals and 52 points in 39 games, but he has no help. Gabby is on pace for almost 60 goals whereas none of his teammates is on track even for 20 goals this season.<\/p>\n<p>Because the Rangers lack scoring depth, Boston can key on Gaborik and stick Zdeno Chara on him all night long. As good as Gaborik is, he still shies away from physical play; Chara will intimidate him. It\u2019s also worth noting that stud Rangers goaltender Henrik Lundqvist suffered a stinger during a collision on the weekend; he may still play but he may not be at his best if he does. Pick the Bruins; if they could handle the deep Philadelphia forward corps, they can handle Gaborik and his motley crew.<\/p>\n<p><strong>NHL Betting Trends:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The total has gone UNDER in 6 of Boston&#8217;s last 7 games<br \/>\nThe total has gone UNDER in 6 of Boston&#8217;s last 7 games when playing NY Rangers<br \/>\nBoston is 5-1 SU in its last 6 games<br \/>\nThe total has gone UNDER in 5 of Boston&#8217;s last 6 games on the road<br \/>\nNY Rangers are 8-1 SU in their last 9 games when playing at home against Boston<br \/>\nThe total has gone UNDER in 7 of the NY Rangers last 8 games at home<br \/>\nThe total has gone UNDER in 6 of the NY Rangers last 7 games<br \/>\nThe total has gone UNDER in 6 of the NY Rangers last 7 games when playing Boston<\/p>\n<p>Pick: Bruins -110<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/record.bettingpartners.com\/_TcMlrmSOeQxhg6WO2I1rgWNd7ZgqdRLk\/1\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">CLICK HERE TO CHECK OUT BODOG.COM&#8217;S NHL HOCKEY BETTING LINES FOR TONIGHTS MATCHUPS!!!!<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><strong><\/strong><br \/>\n<em><strong>Shea Matthews lives and breathes sports.
