Boston Bruins held a pretty good segment in the championship – the team won 4 of the last 7 matches. And today, the “black and gold” will compete with Vegas Golden Knights, which has just had a little crisis. This match will be held at the TD Garden arena in Boston as part of the regular season NHL championship. Well, let’s see who turns out to be stronger – East or West?
Boston Bruins
Boston continues to be in second place in the standings of the Eastern Conference, but after losing to Pittsburgh the advantage of Washington increased slightly – the metropolitan team is ahead of Bruce Cassidy’s squad by 3 points while having one game in reserve. In the last round, Boston visited Pennsylvania – by the middle of the 1st period of the match with Pittsburgh, the Bruins were ahead 3-0. However, they could not keep the advantage – Penguins gathered their strength and won the remainder of the game 4-0, not giving Boston a chance to collect the points so much needed now. However, now the hosts have an excellent opportunity to recoup because Vegas lost two matches out of 2 at TD Garden.
Vegas Golden Knights
Vegas has a very mixed season – even though the team has already changed the head coach, the Golden Knights are still confident enough to stay in the top eight of the Western Conference. Recently, Gallant was dismissed, DeBoer came, this figure is extremely unobvious. In the first match with the new steering Knights outplayed Ottawa 4–2, but in the next round, the “gold” lost away to Montreal, which has recently been terrible. Vegas also has problems with the roster. Personnel losses are quite severe, so there are not many chances for a successful performance at TD Garden.
Boston Bruins vs Vegas Golden Knights prediction
It seems that today the favourite is obvious. Boston lost to Pittsburgh in the last round, so it looks like the hosts will have enough mood to succeed. Vegas is not very good right now; after changing the coach, the guest team needs time to get used to the new specialist. In full-time matches, the advantage is also on the side of the “bears”. Usually meetings between these teams turn out to be low-scoring. In this meeting, it’s worth considering a total under 6 goals.
