10* UNDER Bruins/Panthers (ASSASSIN)
We think it's highly likely that most pundits were pretty surprised that Boston destroyed the Panthers 5-1 in Game 1 of this second round series. And that's becuase the Bruins had just gone seven with the Leafs and needed overtime in the seventh game to earn their spot here. But it was in fact Florida that showed the rust after taking out Tampa Bay in five games and not having played since April 29th. That's always the big question for a team that advances really quickly in their series in four or five games: will the extra time off between series betwen beneficial, or will it be detrimental? Clearly, for the Panthers, "rest" did lead to "rust" in Game 1. But making adjustments from one game to the next is key to success in the playoffs (both for these teams, but also for us handicappers.) But here for this one, we're going to caution in over-reacting to the Game 1 results. That said, we're not going to lay this larger price, but we do think we're going to see a completely different dynamic overall to the pace of this one. Previous to the 5-1 win over Florida in Game 1, the Bruins had seen the total go UNDER in four straight to close out their series with the Leafs and in our opinion we're definitely going to see a much tighter overall Game 2; as a result, the "under" is definitely the correct call here as far as the total is concerned!
