Boston looks to avenge a 4-3 shootout loss to the Penguins on Dec. 14 in the only meeting this season as the Bruins come off a tough 1-0 loss to Chicago on Friday. Tuukka Rask made 21 saves, but the Bruins failed to get anything past Blackhawks goalie Scott Darling. Pittsburgh defeated Carolina 7-1 as Matt Murray saved 27 shots and Conor Sheary scored twice. Rask is 22-11-4 with a sparkling 2.08 goals-against average and .920 save percentage. Marc-Andre Fleury has a 3.23 GAA and .904 save percentage for the Penguins, a 13-7-4 record, and he has lost his last two starts. Boston has won five of the last six meetings and five of the last seven in Pittsburgh. There is good value with Boston in this matchup. Play the Bruins.
