Dallas Stars vs. Boston Bruins Predictions
The Boston Bruins, despite their recent skid, have a strong track record against the Dallas Stars, winning all three encounters in the past two seasons. With the game being played at TD Garden, where the Bruins have a solid 17-7-5 record, home-ice advantage could play a significant role. Additionally, the Bruins’ top scorer, David Pastrnak, has been in excellent form, and his offensive contributions could be the difference-maker. The Bruins’ need to bounce back from their losing streak and the historical head-to-head dominance suggest that they are primed for a win.
While the Stars have been scoring at an impressive rate, the Bruins’ defense is ranked fourth in the league, allowing just 2.64 goals per game, which could stifle the Stars’ offensive firepower. Furthermore, the Bruins’ power play effectiveness, as seen in their last encounter with the Stars, could exploit the Stars’ penalty kill. Considering these factors, along with the Bruins’ motivation to end their losing streak and maintain their strong home record, a moneyline bet on the Boston Bruins is the justified pick for this matchup.
The Pick: Boston Bruins -132 (BetRivers)
