Boston Bruins vs Ottawa Senators Picks and Predictions January 23rd 2025
The Boston Bruins are back on home ice Thursday night, looking to shake off Wednesday’s 5-1 loss to the New Jersey Devils and reclaim their form against the Ottawa Senators. Boston’s recent streak of solid play (3-0-1) hit a speed bump in New Jersey. The loss came just days after the Bruins let a late two-goal lead slip away in a 6-5 shootout loss to Ottawa last Saturday. Forward Morgan Geekie didn’t mince words:“We’re letting games slip away. It’s embarrassing, and we need answers,” said Geekie, who scored Boston’s only goal on Wednesday — his third in five games. David Pastrnak and Pavel Zacha continued their recent surge, with Pastrnak now tallying 12 points in his last five games.“They’re heating

Purdue Boilermakers vs Michigan Wolverines Picks and Predictions January 24th 2025
The stakes are high as No. 11 Purdue welcomes No. 21 Michigan to West Lafayette, Indiana, on Friday night in a pivotal Big Ten matchup.
