Colorado got off to a good start with a season-opening win over the New York Rangers, but then reverted to their ways of last season with a weak showing on offense in a 4-1 loss at New Jersey. The Avalanche allowed three power-play goals against the Devils, and Jonathan Barnier saved 35 shots for Colorado. Boston won its opener 4-3 over Nashville on Thursday as Jake DeBrusk had a goal and assist in his first NHL game, and Charlie McAvoy also had a goal and assist for the Bruins. Tuukka Rask had 26 saves. Semyon Varlamov is expected in goal for Colorado tonight, and he gave up two goals in the win against the Rangers with 39 saves. Colorado is playing its third road game in a row while the Bruins have had three days off. The Bruins have won 12 of their last 14 against Western Conference teams, and they are 11-5-2 UNDER their last 18 home games. The UNDER is 4-1 the last five meetings in Boston. Take the Bruins and the UNDER.
