Game Totals Pick
Under 6.0(-120)

The Sabres put together a dominating performance in Game 4 on Sunday, cruising to a 6-1 win over the Bruins. Now the series moves back to Buffalo with the Sabres looking to close it out. Buffalo jumped out to a 4-0 lead in the 1st period, but it will be interesting to see how they move back to Buffalo impacts their offensive attack. In the first 2 games of the series at KeyBank Center, the Sabres were only able to score goals in the 3rd period. They were held to zero goal across the first 2 periods in both games, and after such an embarrassing performance on Sunday, the Bruins are sure to be much ore defense-minded in this contest.

Offensively, the Bruins have now been held to just 2 total goals over the last 2 games of this series. They can’t seem to muster up much of anything, and the Buffalo defense has been great at limiting Grade A chances. Out of 16 playoff teams, the Bruins rank 14th averaging just 24.0 shots on goal per game. On the other side, Buffalo’s power play is still not clicking, as they are the only team still without a goal on the man advantage in the postseason. All in all, it would be a bit surprising to see a high-scoring game in this one. With a total of 6, look to the under.

Bruins vs Sabres prediction: Under 6 (-120) available at time of publishing. Playable at that number.
