Vegas Golden Knights at Boston Bruins Preview & Picks

Vegas are tipped to win as an underdog on the road.

Boston may have home advantage, but they are in poor form and have been involved in a bunch of overtime games recently, which could take it's toll.

  • Boston Bruins are 2-6 in their last 8 games
  • Boston Bruins are 2-6 in their last 8 home games
  • Each of Boston's last 6 games have gone to overtime
  • The Under has cashed in 4 of the last 6 meetings

Head To Head

  • Vegas Golden Knights lead the regular season series 1-0
  • Vegas Golden Knights won 2-1 in overtime when the two teams last met on January 11

Vegas Golden Knights Form

Vegas head to Boston in poor form and looking to build on Tuesday night’s victory in Toronto.

The Golden Knights have lost five of their last seven games, a sequence that started with a 5-3 defeat to Minnesota.

They then lost 3-1 to Carolina, before heading to San Jose and recording a 4-0 shutout win over the Sharks.

Vegas failed to back that up when they returned home, losing 5-3 to Nashville and 7-3 to Toronto, and their losing skid reached three games when they lost via a shootout in Ottawa.

The Golden Knights snapped that skid in Toronto though, running out 6-2 winners against the Maple Leafs.

Boston Bruins Form

Boston return home looking to end a three-game losing run at the expense of the defending champions.

The Bruins were on a roll in late January, but their form nose-dived in early February as they lost five times in a six-game spell.

They lost 4-1 to Calgary, and then failed to build on a 4-0 win over Vancouver as they lost 3-0 to Washington, 3-2 (SO) to Tampa Bay, 4-1 to Seattle and 5-4 (OT) to Los Angeles.

Boston enjoyed a brief flurry as they won a shootout against Dallas and then earned a 6-5 overtime victory in Edmonton, but they have not won since.

The Bruins dropped back-to-back overtime games, losing 3-2 at Calgary and 3-2 in Vancouver, and then suffered a shootout defeat when they visited Seattle.

Verdict

Boston have been stacking up losses both at home and overall, and they could be jaded after playing a bunch of extended games.

That makes Vegas and for appealing underdog for this one.
