Boston goes for its fifth win in a row after beating the Devils, 3-0, on Monday night to clinch a playoff spot. Tuukka Rask stopped 20 shots while Nick Ritchie broke a scoreless tie in the second period. Jeremy Swayman is probable in net for the Bruins tonight. He is 6-2-1 with a 1.62 goals-against average and a .942 save percentage in a spectacular rookie season so far. The Bruins have won 10 of their past 12 games and appear to be peaking at the right time, heading into the playoffs. New Jersey had its three-game winning streak snapped, and Boston seems to have figured how to beat them, winning the last two meetings after losing four straight to the Devils. Also, seven of the past eight meetings have gone UNDER. Play the Bruins and the UNDER.
