Boston at Washington

Premium Pick

Washington has to be totally demoralized after losing three straight, including two in overtime after winning Game 1. David Pastrnak and Charlie Coyle scored early in the third period while Tuukka Rask had 19 saves in Boston's 3-1 win on Friday. Rask has a 1.99 goals-against average and .930 save percentage in four playoff games. The Capitals are trying different goaltenders with the same results, and Vitek Vanecek will likely get his chance tonight after Ilya Samsonov gave up all four goals in Game 4. The Bruins have won 15 of their past 21 games, and they are 37-15 with one day of rest. The Capitals have lost five of their past seven against teams with winning records, and they have scored only 15 goals their last seven games. Take the Bruins for a Max Play.
