The Boston Bruins were able to make history last night with their 2-1 win over the New Jersey Devils. They tied the NHL record for wins in a season with 62, which was set by the 1995-96 Detroit Red Wings and was then matched by the 2018-2019 Tampa Bay Lightning. They're not wasting any time trying to set the record as they now face off against the Philadelphia Flyers tonight. All eyes were already going to be on them chasing history, but it's also 1 of just 2 games on the ice tonight and will be aired on TNT at 6 PM ET. To celebrate a potentially historical night, we've come up with a Same Game Parlay for the action.

Boston Bruins -1.5 (-105)
There is simply no reason to bet against the Bruins at this point. They have 3 games left to break the record, but why waste any time? Boston has been the most dominant team in the NHL all season, having clinched the Presidents' Trophy for the league's best record quite some time ago. Meanwhile, the Flyers couldn't be trending in a more opposite direction. They've been the 2nd-worst team in the Metro Division virtually all year and have been even worse as of late. Philly was also in action last night and was shutout in a 4-0 loss to the New York Islanders.'
They've now lost 6 straight games, going 0-5-1 in the process. Each of the last 5 of those games have been losses by multiple goals as well. They've scored just 5 goals across their last 4 games, and now face the league's best goaltending in the Bruins. To put salt in the wound, the Flyers had starting goaltender Carter Hart in net last night, pulled him, and put in backup Felix Sandstrom. So, not only are they the clearer inferior team, but they're also far from rested and ready to give it a real shot tonight. Boston has crushed Philly 4-1 and 6-0 already this year, and with history on the line, we should see another dominant win.''
