Boston has won 10 of 13 games since Bruce Cassidy replaced defensive-minded Claude Julien as coach. They've scored 47 goals in those 13 games, part of a 12-5-2 run OVER the total. Newcomer Drew Stafford has been great on offense since being acquired from Winnipeg four games ago, registering four points, including the game-winning goal on Saturday. He joins Brad Marchand (70 points), who has scored eight goals in 10 games, while David Pastrnak (58) is on a roll. Patrice Bergeron has recorded 23 of his 44 points over the last 18 games and has notched 15 in 13 contests since Cassidy took over as coach. Boston is 8-2-2 OVER the total against losing teams, plus 10-1-1 OVER after scoring two goals or less in their previous game. Vancouver isn't playing much defense, allowing seven goals the last two contests. Defenseman Chris Tanev sat out the loss to Pittsburgh with food poisoning and is questionable for Monday’s game. The Bruins won the last meeting a month ago, 4-3, and this total is also too low. Play OVER the total here.
