Vegas Golden Knights @ Boston Bruins Preview

The Boston Bruins (27-23-6) host the Vegas Golden Knights (32-17-6) in a critical matchup before the 4 Nations Face-Off break. The Bruins are looking to bounce back after a 3-2 loss to the New York Rangers, while the Golden Knights are coming off a 3-1 victory over the New Jersey Devils, snapping a four-game winless streak. Boston has struggled defensively, allowing 19 goals in their last five games, while Vegas has tightened up, allowing just 29 shots on goal in their last two games combined. Jack Eichel leads the Golden Knights with 67 points, while David Pastrnak is riding a 12-game point streak for the Bruins. Both teams are aiming to head into the break on a high note, making this a pivotal game for momentum.

Historic Head-to-Head Stats and Analysis

In their last five meetings, the Boston Bruins have won three games, while the Vegas Golden Knights have won two. Their most recent matchup on March 1, 2024, saw the Bruins edge out a 5-4 victory. Earlier in 2024, the Golden Knights secured a 2-1 win. Other notable results include a 3-1 Bruins win in December 2022 and a 4-3 shootout victory for the Golden Knights in the same month. Historically, Boston has had the edge, but Vegas has proven they can compete in close games.

Pick: Total Over 5.5

Both teams have shown offensive potential, with Vegas averaging 3.27 goals per game and Boston looking to capitalize on their home advantage. The Bruins' recent defensive struggles, combined with the Golden Knights' ability to score three or more goals in most of their wins, suggest a high-scoring game. The Over 5.5 line at -115 via Caesars is a strong play.

Top Player Prop Picks

1. Jack Eichel Over 1.5 Points

Eichel has been on fire with eight goals in his last nine games and leads the Golden Knights with 67 points. His recent form and Boston's defensive struggles make this a solid pick.

2. David Pastrnak Anytime Goal Scorer

Pastrnak is riding a 12-game point streak and remains Boston's most consistent offensive threat. With Vegas focusing on defense, Pastrnak's ability to find the net will be crucial.

3. Total Shots on Goal Over 29.5 for Vegas

Vegas has been limiting opponents' shots while maintaining offensive pressure. With Boston's recent defensive lapses, expect the Golden Knights to generate plenty of opportunities.
