LiontipsBoston vs St. Louis. Prediction and Betting Tips for NHL (April 13, 2022).
Command Analysis
Boston have changed their style quite a bit and moved away from a very defensive brand of hockey. Their defensive line is not as strong as it used to be, so the Bruins now rely on their powerful attack.
The Bruins sit in the top-6 in the Eastern Conference. Lately, however, the team has been inconsistent - they prevailed over Columbus in overtime (4:3 ОТ), lost to Detroit (3:5), and after a win against Tampa (2:1 ОТ) suffered a defeat to Washington (3:5).
St. Louis look fantastic and are enjoying a five-game winning streak. The Blues are currently in 4th place in the West with a total of 94 points, but they haven't clinched their playoff position yet and can't afford to relax at the end of this regular season.
In the last three games, the Blues defeated Seattle (4:1), Minnesota (4:3 ОТ), and the Islanders (6:1). In each of their last eight games, Craig Berube's men scored at least four goals.
