Knights to Dominate Bruins

The Golden Knights should prove too strong for the Bruins and our prediction is to back them at -1.5 on the puck line. The odds of 2.06 looks like a value proposition.

Knights 4-3 Winners in Previous H2H

Boston Bruins have lost in their previous three outings. In a recent home game at TD Garden, they were turned over 3-2 (OT) by Buffalo Sabres. Pavel Zacha and Morgan Geekie scored one goal apiece.

Vegas Golden Knights have been defeated in back-to-back games. On the road, they recently suffered a 3-0 loss against Detroit Red Wings at Little Caesars Arena. Knights lost the shots on goal, 18 to 27.

The scoreline was 4-3 in favor of the Knights when they last played the Bruins, with the encounter taking place at TD Garden. The previous 10 games featuring these teams have resulted in six the Bruins victories.

Expert NHL Analysis

We’re keen to follow the latest form and understand any patterns that emerge. The same applies to injuries that could affect key players. Combined with the most important player and goalie stats, there is plenty of information to make a verdict.

Key Bruins vs Golden Knights stats:

  • The -1.5 line has been covered by Golden Knights in 4 of their last 5 games at home.
  • The -1.5 line has been covered by Golden Knights in 13 of their last 20 games at home.

Boston Bruins vs Vegas Golden Knights Prediction

Rather than back Vegas Golden Knights on the moneyline, our pick is to back them off a -1.5 goal handicap. We’re taking the 2.06 on the puck line to get bigger odds.

If you want to land a big potential return from a small stake, then a Bet Builder could be a good way to go. Back Vegas against the Puck Line in a combination with other selections.

Knights -1.5 Probability

The sportsbooks imply that our pick has a 48.5% prospect of winning. However, we think that the probability sits between 55-60% taking all factors into consideration. It is therefore regarded as a value wager.
