Boston Bruins vs. Ottawa Senators who bet elections, predictions March 13

The second week back on Deadspin panned much nicer than the first. But there are still some more loose ends to bind up trying to secure winning hockey and baskets season before it is at baseball.

Tonight’s over/miracle can undoubtedly be regarded as the main event in all professional sports – yes, at least if you are a Boston Bruins fan.

This is because it will involve a showdown between former teammates who happen to share the difference of being one of NHL’s best goal duos in the latest story. They also created one of the best signature tandem celebration as well.

Jeremy Swayman and Linus Ullmark did magic while they were goalkeepers “1a” and “1B” in Boston – even help the organization set a league record for most points of a team for a single season – and this last matchup of the campaign between Bruins and senators will see them to meet for a second time.

The first meeting that saw the couple Netminder’s Lock Horns occurred on November 9, a 3-2 road victory for Ottawa who also produced a triumph for those who bet under. The other two matches with these old northeastern divisional rivals only had one or none of Swayman and Ullmark.

This re-match between the two will be their most important head-to-head slope so far given each club’s current positioning in the after-year image. The Senators are in the first wild card playoffs right now of a handful of points, while Bruins is two points from the second and last place-but with three other Eastern Conference team in front of them.

Boston also underwent only a significant fire sale that saw them lose long -standing Franchise -stalwart Brad Marchand -the last person left from his Stanley Cup championship in 2011, except Brandon Carlo, Charlie Coyle and others.

Even despite these influencing subtractions, Bruins has played inspired from late, notching consecutive victories against the lightning strike and Panthers (against eternal friend Marchand in it) since the trade deadline. Swayman started these games and was fantastic in both, but these are his latest sincere words that can lead to a best season still coming.

Swayman told ESPN’s Emily Kaplan after his suspension versus Tampa: “We will miss these guys so much. They led the foundation, Emily, and it will never be the same without them, but it must be up to us who have been there with them to continue their heritage and understand the next men’s mentality and make them proud. “

With such a way of thinking, Swayman is a good effort to continue his latest strong game, even though he may not match the usual high expectations he has set for himself since he arrived at the NHL four years ago. I would trust him to consistently perform closer to his standard through the last weeks of the season.

In the meantime, Ullmark continues its effective work in its first campaign as a senator. He may not lose to another Vezina trophy that he did two years ago, but he still has another solid season in line with what he produced throughout his time as Bruin. He probably won’t disappoint neither opposite one of his best friends.

In addition, Boston threw almost half of its seven best goaliers, and given that they are already second from the bottom in the east in goal per match (2.71), which cannot bind well to the crime in the short term. We are only focused on the crime continuing its beat in Ottawa.

I choose to thank a half goal to a total of 5.5 for what is a reasonable value.
