If the first round against Montreal was any indication, Boston could be up to the task.<\/p>\n<p>The Bruins were resilient against a Montreal team that had won 24 of 32 playoff series against them. After falling behind 2-0 in the series, they bounced back to even the series 2-2 and won three of the final four games in overtime.  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bmaker.ag\/latest-promo\/?cmpid=17435_3889\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 3px solid #ffffff;\" src=\"http:\/\/banners.bmaker.ag\/images\/hockey_250_250_1.gif?cmpid=3052_827\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I like Boston\u2019s chances in this series. It has the goaltending advantage with Tim Thomas and it\u2019s the healthier team; the Flyers won\u2019t have Jeff Carter for Game 1 and Chris Pronger is nowhere near 100 per cent.<\/p>\n<p>However, I wonder if Boston is walking into a buzzsaw on Saturday afternoon. The Bruins could be exhausted after three of their last four games went to OT and they\u2019ve done a lot of travelling. Meanwhile, the Flyers played Game 7 against Buffalo at home and have had an extra day off. While Brian Boucher is the inferior netminder, he\u2019s also very streaky; remember when he got five shutouts in a row one season? He came up big against Buffalo when it mattered on Tuesday, so he might be \u201con\u201d for Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>I see Game 1 as a tired team, happy after an emotional series, hitting the road to play a fresh team that finally turned a corner late in its series and will be playing in front of a raucous home crowd. Especially for the Bruins defense, it will be an adjustment to face the Flyer forwards. Mike Richards and company are just a more physical bunch than one Montreal had to offer.<\/p>\n<p>I still have a good feeling about Boston overall in the series but I think they\u2019ll need a game to adjust. Take the Flyers in Game 1.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bruins vs Flyers prediction: Flyers 4, Bruins 1<\/p>\n<p>Money Line: Flyers -130<br \/>\nSpread: Flyers -1.5<br \/>\nOver\/Under: UNDER 5.5<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Hey!
