Golden Knights vs Bruins Moneyline Pick: Bruins (-155)

The Bruins have had a tough go of it recently, but they should be able to turn things around when they return home, where they have a solid 18-7-5 record.

Although Boston’s offense has had a bit of a struggle during its skid, averaging 2.3 goals in its last three, it should be able to find a bit more success at home, where it scored three a game in its last three. The Knights’ defense has struggled, allowing 4.33 goals a game in their last three games, offering another opportunity for the Bruins to find the back of the net.

However, Boston hasn’t quite been performing to its fourth-ranked defense either – it has allowed 3.33 goals a game in its last three. With injuries to a pair of Vegas’ top scorers, though, its offense has had a tougher time coming by goals and may do so again on the road against a top defense.
