Command Analysis
Boston Bruins
USACurrent form
Many expected a much more confident game from Boston this season, as the team showed excellent results last year, thereby confidently advancing to the playoffs and even had a good chance to compete for leadership in the East. Due to the problems with the composition, the level of play of the bears has dropped significantly. The club has completely failed this season, without a single chance of reaching the playoffs. At the moment, the team occupies the penultimate place in the Eastern Conference table, and the gap from the coveted eighth position is already 14 points.
Back in early March, the team hoped to get a ticket to the Stanley Cup, but a prolonged recession ruled out this possibility. The team could not achieve success for 10 consecutive matches, which has not happened since 2010. At the very end of the regular season, the Bruins began to recover and earn points. Boston has suffered only one defeat from Buffalo in the last three matches (6:1). In the remaining meetings, they managed to win over Carolina (5:1) and New Jersey (7:1).
Disqualifications and injuries
Castelic, Lindholm and McAvoy remain in the infirmary.
Interesting betting trends
- On average, Boston scores only 2.68 goals per game.
- The Bruins receive an average of 9.8 penalty minutes per game.
Chicago Blackhawks
USACurrent form
Chicago continues its protracted restructuring. The team has been unable to even get close to the playoff zone for four years in a row, and every year it performs no better. Even the arrival of super-talented striker Bedard has not improved the situation in any way, and the club is still experiencing serious personnel problems. In 78 games this season, the Hawks have scored only 54 points, which is a terrible indicator. The only one worse is San Jose, which has 50 points. The main reason for such a weak result is the very low performance in attack, and the defensive line is simply not able to compensate for this disadvantage.
Naturally, with such a game, the Blackhawks have long since lost all chances of making the playoffs and are simply playing out another disastrous regular season. What is especially noteworthy is that the club does not seem to be trying to end it on a good note and in seven matches it was able to win only one victory, with almost all other meetings leading to a defeat.
Disqualifications and injuries
Brossois, Dakh, Dickinson, Martinez and Weber will not be able to participate in the upcoming match due to injuries.
Interesting betting trends
- On average, Chicago concedes 3.6 goals per match.
- The Hawks completed 24% of the majority attempts

1.50Tip and bets
Boston is the clear favorite in the upcoming match, for which there are reasons. Yes, the bears have completely failed the season, but they are still superior to Chicago in all respects. In addition, the bears came to their senses at the end of the regular season and began to delight the fans with successful results. It is also impossible not to take into account the advantage of home walls, which will help the Bruins achieve another victory.
Our prediction is that Boston will win in 2.00
Bet on the total
The upcoming match promises to be very productive. Both teams are experiencing huge defensive problems this season, which constantly leads to a large number of abandoned goals. This is especially true, of course, in Chicago. It is unlikely that the clubs will sit on the defensive and play carefully, as this meeting has no effect on anything. We believe that the teams will delight the fans with active hockey.
Betting Tip – total more than 5.5 goals in 1.79
Betting on the outcome of the first period
Boston, due to its superiority over its opponent, as well as the support of its home stands, is quite capable of creating serious problems for Chicago from the first minutes of the match. We believe that the hosts will be able to earn an advantage at the end of the starting segment.
Prediction – Boston wins in the first period with a handicap (0) in 1.63
