The Boston Bruins were getting magic behind the net from Tim Thomas early in the season. Thomas allowed just 13 goals in his first 11 starts behind the net, making the Bruins very hard to beat. Thomas has not been nearly as effective lately allowing 13 in his last five, more than his first 11 combined in just five games. The Bruins have now come out on the right side in six of their last 14 games. The Ducks have been a better team over their last dozen games with a 7-5 mark, including playing even on the road at 3-3 in their last six. The Ducks have also done their best work vs. the Northeast where they are 19-7 in their last 26, while the Bruins struggle vs. the West at just 2-7 in their last 9. I'll go with Anaheim.
