Boston won the first meeting 4-3 in overtime on Nov. 7 and the Bruins currently have won five of seven after defeating Vancouver 5-1 on Saturday when Jeremy Swayman stopped 19 of 20 shots for Boston as he bounced back nicely after getting bombarded for eight goals in an 8-1 loss to Winnipeg his previous game. Swayman still has won four of his past five starts and is playing better than he has all season following a slow start after missing training camp. Calgary has lost seven of 10 and has alternated good and bad performances its past four games, losing 6-2 and 8-3 to Dallas and Tampa Bay, respectively, and beating Nashville and most recently Florida 3-0 on Saturday. The Flames have lost five of six against the Atlantic Division and four straight against a team that allowed two or fewer goals its previous game. Boston has won four in a row after allowing two or fewer goals and it is 4-0 UNDER after scoring five or more. Take the Bruins and the UNDER.
