LiontipsBoston vs Minnesota. Prediction and Betting Tips for NHL (October 22, 2022).
Command Analysis
Boston were off to a good start in the new NHL season. Jim Montgomery found the right approach to his team and built a good system. The Bruins lost to Ottawa (5:7) away, but in the following game, they prevailed over Anaheim (2:1 SO). It was the only game, in which the Bruins couldn't score more than three goals. David Pastrnak is the top scorer for Boston; he has already earned eight points.
Minnesota lost three out of four games this season. In each game, the Wild conceded at least three goals. In the last outing, they managed to beat Vancouver in overtime (4:3 OT), but overall, this has been a terrible start. Dean Evason's men struggle to keep up with their opponents' forwards and are unreliable on defense, but they usually score a lot. Kirill Kaprizov has delivered four goals and given four assists.

Our prediction - Minnesota to win
Minnesota scored more than two goals in each of their games this season. We do not doubt their attacking abilities, and considering Boston's unreliable performance on defense in the last games, the Wild should easily net three or more goals.
