Boston secured a playoff spot even though the club is only fourth in the Atlantic Division. But there is still a chance to push Tampa Bay from third place to get a less formidable opponent in the playoffs.
Florida excellently spent the regular season, not only securing the playoffs but also victory in the Eastern Conference. So now frequent losses are not surprising (they lost to Tampa 4:8 in the last game), as the team is just playing for fun.
Boston will be motivated to win today to improve their standings. Florida will just try to show beautiful play, so we expect many goals.
Our prediction: at least 6 goals to be scored. We recommend the “Over 5.5” bet, odds 1.5
