Boston has won the last four meetings and eight of the last 10, including two wins in December. The Bruins have won seven of their last eight games overall while allowing a total of only 13 goals in that span. Tuukka Rask has been brilliant and he posted a point for a 20th straight game when the Bruins beat Toronto 4-1 on Saturday. Rask made 23 saves and the only goal by the Maple Leafs was redirected off a Boston defenseman. Detroit has lost five of its last eight games, including 3-2 at Florida when Jonathan Huberseau scored in the final seconds for the game-winner. Petr Mrazek made 30 saves for the Red Wings and Jimmy Howard is expected in goal tonight. Howard is 14-16-6 with a 2.82 goals-against average and has lost his last four starts. Boston has won 11 in a row against Atlantic Division teams and 25 of its last 33 overall. Play the Bruins.
