(39) Buffalo Sabres at (40) Boston Bruins

7:07pm EDT - Mar 17/2025

THE PLAY: Boston Bruins -125

Though their chances are extremely remote, the Bruins are still mathematically alive for a playoff spot. They know that's unrealistic though. However, I'm still expecting them to play hard. The Bruins weren't happy with their effort last game and are looking for improvement today.

Here are some of the quotes from Boston players and coaches: Elias Lindholm: "It was embarrassing. The compete level was nowhere to be found. ... We deserved to obviously get booed. Second period is the worst I've seen us play this year."

Pavel Zacha: "You can't play only one good period a game and win. That's something we have to learn from. We had to play better, especially at home for our fans. It just wasn't good enough."

Joe Sacco: "We need a better showing. We need to be able to dig in more and respond from a game that we're obviously not happy with. ... We have players that are still getting accustomed to how we play and whatnot, but that doesn't matter."

While the Sabres are still fighting hard, they've got nothing at all to play for. They're respectable at home but just 9-22 on the road. Look for a determined effort and a win for the home team.

Ben Burns is WagerTalk's #1 NHL Handicapper this season and he's also Wagertalk's #1 Overall Handicapper in 2025.
