Command Analysis
New Jersey Devils
USACurrent form
New Jersey is doing its best to improve its position in the standings. The team recently found itself in the seventh position of the Eastern Conference and is now literally one point behind Ottawa, so in the near future it may end up in sixth place. Note that the Devils are in good shape right now and are heading for a series of three victories.
They had previously lost on the road to Winnipeg (0:4), after which they dealt with Minnesota (5:2), and already at home they proved their superiority over the same savages (3:2B) and literally defeated the Rangers with a score of 4:0, leaving them no chance. It is noteworthy that in the three previous meetings, Sheldon Keogh's team demonstrated a confident defensive game and managed no more than two missed goals.
It was this style of play that brought him success throughout the season. However, on their ice, in general, the Devils are not performing in the best way, since they have managed to win only 17 victories during the regular season.
Disqualifications and injuries
Siegenthaler, Hamilton and Hughes will miss the upcoming meeting.
Interesting betting trends

Boston Bruins
USACurrent form
Boston has been showing disastrous results for a long period of time and has not been able to fully recover. The team turned out to be the main outsider of the Eastern Conference and dropped to the last line of the standings, so it only claims to improve its position by literally one or two places.
Bears, as a rule, lose match after match and before that they were completely on a series of ten failures. Fortunately, after the disastrous matches against Washington (3:4) and Montreal (1:4), they returned to the home arena, where, unexpectedly for many, they dealt with Carolina with a score of 5:1. Nevertheless, in the final confrontation with Buffalo, Joe Sacco's team failed again with a score of 3:6.
We emphasize that the Bruins began to experience a huge number of problems with the defensive game and began to concede, as a rule, at least three or four goals per match. The team's most unsuccessful performance remains the third game period, in which it has a 70:96 ratio in goals scored and conceded, so the end of matches is usually mediocre for it.
Disqualifications and injuries
Lindholm, McEvoy and Castelitz will miss the upcoming match.
Interesting betting trends
- Boston wins 51.5% of face-offs
- The Bruins receive an average of 9.88 minutes of penalty time.

We're betting more than three goals per 1.67 on New Jersey's individual total.
Bet on the total total
The last matches between the clubs were productive and took place with no less than six goals scored. New Jersey usually has no problem creating and executing chances when playing against outsiders.
