Command Analysis
Boston Bruins

Boston successfully completed the away series, defeating New Jersey with a score of 7:2. The attacking line showed a great game, and in particular it is worth noting the striker Pastrnyak, who scored the puck and gave two assists. However, after returning to the home arena, the team unexpectedly suffered a defeat from Chicago (2:5). The third period turned out to be a complete failure, in which I had to concede as many as four goals. Goalkeeper Swayman showed a terrible game, reflecting only 80% of shots.
The Bruins were able to regain the lost points on the road, where they left no chance for Pittsburgh (4:1). This time, the goal was defended by Korpisalo, who played much more reliably than his teammate. Once again, we would like to note that this season turned out to be one of the most unsuccessful for Boston. The club experienced huge problems throughout the regular season, which is why it dropped to the last place in the Eastern Conference table, where it can finish this season.

New Jersey Devils
USACurrent form
At the very end of the regular season, New Jersey began another recession. The team is in terrible shape and has been unable to succeed for three consecutive matches, all of which took place at home. The native walls did not help the Devils to give a worthy rebuff to Boston, having suffered a crushing defeat with a score of 2:7. Goalkeeper Markstrom showed his worst side, who was replaced too late, only in the middle of the third period. Serious defensive problems also arose in the next match with Pittsburgh, but this time they had to concede with a difference of only two goals (2:4). From the start, the goal was defended by Allen, who did not play much more reliably than his teammate.
The defensive line proved itself well in the duel with the Islanders, but this time the club's attack failed. In three periods, New York scored only 25 shots on the Islanders' goal, and none of them reached the goal, which led to the third defeat in a row (0:1). As you can see, the team has been showing a very weak game lately, but this did not prevent it from getting a ticket to the playoffs ahead of schedule. At the moment, he is on the seventh line, but he may drop another point if he continues to perform in the same spirit.
Disqualifications and injuries
Hamilton, Siegenthaler, Nousen and Hughes will miss the upcoming match.

1.50Tip and bets
Boston has recently shown an extremely unstable game, which is why it is too dangerous to bet in its favor. The team constantly alternates between wins and losses, both at home and away. New Jersey is looking much better than Boston this season and clearly has a great desire to keep seventh place in the Eastern Conference table, and for this you need to earn points. We believe that this motivation will help the guests achieve the desired result.
Our prediction is that New Jersey will win the match in 1.62
Bet on the total
Also, in the upcoming match, it is quite possible to expect a large number of abandoned goals. Both teams have been experiencing serious defensive problems throughout the regular season and are trying to compensate for them through the offensive line. So we choose the total more as the second bet.
Betting Tip – total more than six goals in 1.84
Betting on the outcome of the first period
Nevertheless, it is worth noting that Boston shows an excellent game at the beginning of the meeting and constantly creates serious problems for its competitors in the opening segment, which is what we propose to place another bet on.
Prediction – Boston wins in the first period with a handicap (0) in 2.14
