Bruins vs Flames Odds, Pick & Prediction (Feb 28)

Gathering 97 points from 59 games so far this campaign, Boston is on pace to set an NHL record for most points in a single season.

NHL Teams – Most Points in a Season

Unlike the Oilers, who the Bruins defeated 3-2 last night, Boston excels on both offense and defense. They are third overall in goals per game and the best squad in the NHL at keeping pucks out of their net by a wide margin.

In Ullmark, they have a netminder who is the chalk in the Vezina Trophy odds, and also own a likely finalist in the Hart Trophy odds in winger David Pastrnak.

Second to only Connor McDavid in goals, it’ll be interesting to see the amount of money the B’s will need to dish out to keep their all-star sniper, but raising the Stanley Cup above his head will likely go a long way in keeping the band together for the future.

Flames Need To Turn it Up in Race for Postseason

Time is slowly running out on the Calgary Flames season. After starting the year as one of the Stanley Cup favorites, the Flames are right on the edge of the current NHL playoff odds.

They currently sit 9th in the Western Conference, four points behind the Kraken who occupy the last Wild Card spot. Goaltending has been a major issue this campaign, as Jacob Markstrom has severely underperformed. Expect tactical head coach Darryl Sutter to have his team clamp down in a big way against the NHL’s top squad.

Bruins vs Flames Same-Game Parlay Picks

Calgary has given up at least three goals in four straight and they won’t have much of a chance if they need to score four against a Bruins squad that has held opponents to three or fewer markers in eight of their last nine.

Bruins vs Flames Pick & Prediction

The Bruins have played eight back-to-backs this season and own a 6-2 straight up record on no days rest, so they’ve shown they can battle through the fatigue.

However, each previous time they went for an 8th consecutive win this year, their streak has been stopped and both times, those losses were on the road. Our prediction contains an element of surprise, as we like the underdogs to come out with a straight up victory in the Tuesday NHL odds.

Both Brad Marchand and Patrice Bergeron got hurt against the Oilers although they both returned to finish the game. Another forward, Taylor Hall missed the game with a lower-body injury. Yes, Boston is far and away the best team in the league, but we feel the Bruins are ripe for an upset, so pick the Flames to get back in the win column.
