Washington Capital - Boston Bruins. NHL match betting tip and bets

Current form

Washington made a breakthrough last year, the team demonstrated the highest quality of play throughout the regular season and thus took the lead in the table. However, they only managed to reach the quarterfinals in the playoffs, losing to Carolina. Let's remind that in the off-season the club remained almost unchanged. Due to this, the Capitals were able to please the fans in the preseason, winning victories over almost all rivals. It was not possible to cope only in the return meeting with Boston (1:3).

Current form

After Boston's terrible performance last season, the club's management nevertheless made major changes. Now the team will be coached by Sturm, who previously worked in Ontario. It seemed that the Bears would focus on defense in the offseason, but the club signed only two forwards: Harris and Cederstrom. Few would have expected the Bruins to perform so well in the preseason. The Bruins played six matches and suffered only one defeat in regular time from Washington (2:5), and also lost offensively to Philadelphia in a shootout (2:6).
