OK, sorry, late play but one major, major issue with the NHL is that it does NOT make its teams lock in things within 30 minutes of puck drop. I was only playing this if Hawks No. 2 Arvid Soderblom was in net. Just confirmed. Home opener for Boston.

You should bet this at regulation, to get it down closer to (-120) odds. The B's should get the win in their home opener, against a Chicago team that's dead last in Stanley Cup odds. Boston is coming off a 3-1 road win over the Capitals with a strong showing from special teams. Goalie Jeremey Swayman's contract drama is behind him and he's ready to go after a full training camp. Chicago is the third youngest roster in the NHL with Spencer Knight in net who will be playing as a full-time starting goalie for the first time in his career. He faced 37 shots in his debut -- similar to the struggles last year's goalies faced, leading to the league's 2nd worst goal differential.
