For this game, Carter Verhaeghe just needs to score a point for the bet to win. He's been on a roll lately, and the Boston Bruins have been letting in some goals. The Bruins have won 7 of their last 10 games, but they've also given up opportunities to their opponents, which could work in Verhaeghe's favor.
