    I always find the best plays for future bets is to get a team on a winning streak and to get them at great value, I had to lock in the Bruins to win East at +350. Not just saying that because I'm a Boston fan but here are a few reasons why it's great value right now:

    -have just won 4 in a row and some sites are lowering it to +250 or +300 and they have a favorable schedule before the Olympic break and can win most of those games

    -have 33 ROW wins which is same as the Pens (Bruins aren't great in shootouts but that doesn't matter in the playoffs)

    -Best defensive team in the east and second best offensive team in the east (best goal differential in east)

    -Bruins have several strong lines which is very important in the playoffs (8 players in double digits for scoring, I believe no other team has more then 6 in the whole league)

    -East is a joke compared to the west, (if any other team in the East besides Boston, Tampa, on Pittsburgh was in the West right now they wouldn't even be in the playoffs

    Ya upsets can happen but I gotta back my team when I it's excellent value. BOL to everyone else on their future plays

    I think its a good play, don't see anyone beating the bruins in a series. but like you said upsets do happen, but at +350 worth a shot. good luck to you!

    might be a good play for the cup as well, got to figure after the west beats the crap out of eachother, bruins will be a difficult task

    Thanks potvin I didn't even check the odds for that... they are 10 to 1 which is good. I would definitely regret not putting anything on that if they do go to the cup finals

    They trail Pitts but 5 pts but have 1 game in hand
    With over 30 games left, they should be ok
