LiontipsNew Jersey vs Boston. Prediction and Betting Tips for NHL Preseason (October 3, 2022).
Command Analysis
In the upcoming season, New Jersey will rely on their young prospects and experienced forwards. However, the Devils' defensive line isn't very reliable, so they might miss out on the playoffs once again. The preseason looks good for New Jersey. The team won three out of four games. Following victories over the Islanders (4:1) and Rangers (5:2), the team lost to the latter in the second game (1:2).
There is a lack of bench depth for Boston, and the team relies heavily on two powerful lines. Injuries to one or two key players could cause serious problems. So far, the Bruins have done well - they won the previous two games. After beating the Rangers in an equal fight (3:2 ОТ), they crushed Philadelphia (4:0). Linus Ullmark made 21 saves in that game. In the upcoming match we will probably see Marchand and Pastrnak, the two main stars of the team.

Boston look more solid in the preseason, plus they hold the upper hand in the head-to-head. The Bruins are approaching this game in their best team form with all the key players in the ranks, so we don't think New Jersey have a chance.
Our prediction - Boston to win
Boston average three goals in games against New Jersey. In the previous outing, the Bruins scored four unanswered goals against Philadelphia. Clearly, their attacking line is in good form, so we suggest taking the individual total of the visitors.
