St. Louis is playing better than Boston. Goalie Jordan Binnington is hot again. The Bruins' power play has gone cold. The Blues are home - and the price is right to back them.

The home team has won six of the last eight times between these two teams.

The Blues have been superior to the Bruins when the teams were at regular strength. Boston's key has been on special teams with its power play. But now that has gone cold failing to score the past five times spanning the last two games.

Unfortunately bad officiating has played a part during these Stanley Cup playoffs. This is a random thing, but the Blues being the home team are the more likely to get a break.

Binnington, who went 24-5-1 after arriving from the minors, is coming off a 38-save performance in the Blues' 2-1 road win this past Thursday in Game 5. He's allowed just three goals in the last two games.
