Let’s break down each of the legs one by one.
Boston Bruins -1.5 over Columbus Blue Jackets (+105)
The Boston Bruins only have 14 games left, but they still have a chance to get home-ice advantage for the first round of the playoffs. Playing the Columbus Blue Jackets tonight, the Bruins are looking at this game as a must-win. The Jackets are a non-playoff team, and at this stage of the season all games against non-playoff teams are seen as an important two points in the standings. With a win here tonight, the Bruins have a chance to tie Tampa Bay or Toronto in the standings. The last time these teams met was two days ago, when Boston prevailed 5-2. The Bruins are the better team in this matchup, and after having two days to review the last game they will enter tonight looking even better. Don’t overthink this one; take the Bruins on the puck line.

Toronto Maple Leafs ML over Tampa Bay Lightning (+110)
This is the biggest game of the evening. Currently tied with 93 points, the Toronto Maple Leafs and Tampa Bay Lightning are playing for a massive two-point swing. The importance of this game could come down to who gets home-ice advantage between these two in a possible first-round matchup. Jack Campbell is back from injury and is confirmed to start in the net for the Leafs. While he had a bad stretch of games before having a month off to nurse an injury, he looked very solid in his return against Toronto’s victory over the Flyers. Expect him to build on that performance tonight. The Maple Leafs top line is looking unstoppable right now. With Matthews seemingly scoring every game (14 goals in his last 12) and Mitch Marner on the best run of his career averaging 2.1 points per game over his last nine games, the Leafs offense could overpower the Lightning. Take the Leafs on the money line.

Calgary Flames -1.5 over the LA Kings (+145)
The Calgary Flames are looking for some revenge. Following a 3-2 loss just four days ago to the LA Kings, the Flames are looking to get those two points back. The Kings beating the Flames wasn’t a fluke, but Calgary would be the first to tell you it didn’t play its best game in that matchup. The Flames be coming back tonight hungry, and this one could end up being a blowout. Additionally, the Flames are currently on a three-game winning streak and desperately need a victory to maintain the number one seed in the Pacific. Jacob Markstrom is expected to start for the Kings; he currently has nine shutouts on the season and tonight seems like the perfect timing to record his tenth. The Flames average the seventh-most goals for and the second-fewest goals against. Take the Flames on the puck line.
