In fact, 10 of the Penguins 12 losses this season came on the puck line. The Pens either win, or go full retard and try to fight and play tough and get smoked.
If you think the Pens will play the same way and you're backing the Bruins, you might as well throw half a unit on the reverse puck line as well. Personally, I think the Pens cool off and go back to putting the puck in the net and let Cooke do what he does. I see Lucic and co. taking a lot of bad penalties in Game 2. The post saved Rask from being down early.
