Bruins vs Canadiens Pick

Money Line Pick For Bruins vs Canadiens

  • Canadiens (-150) (4 units)

The Canadiens have struggled lately but I see them bouncing back on their home ice and taking over this game. The Canadiens should create plenty of scoring chances against the Bruins, who allow 3.36 goals per game, with Nick Suzuki, Cole Caufield, and the rest of the forward unit carrying the puck into the offensive zone while creating open shots with quick passes. The Canadiens should limit the Bruins offense with Mike Matheson and Noah Dobson creating turnovers in the defensive zone while limiting shots on the net, allowing goaltender Samuel Montembeault to make plenty of big saves. The Canadiens should win the game with a strong performance on their home ice.

Take the Canadiens money line as home Favorites.

Over/Under Pick For Bruins vs Canadiens

  • Over 6 (5 Units)

Both teams have great offenses and I see this game being a high-scoring one from the opening puck drop. The Bruins, who average 3.36 goals per game, should pile on the goals with David Pastrnak, Morgan Geekie, and the rest of the forward unit carrying the puck into the offensive zone while creating open shots with quick passes. The Canadiens, who average 3.41 goals per game, should run up the score against the Bruins, who have allowed eight goals in their last two games, with Nick Suzuki, Cole Caufield, Ivan Demidov, and the rest of the forward unit establishing a strong offensive zone presence and creating open shots with effective puck movement while Noah Dobson and Lane Lambert pick apart the Bruins defense from the point. The Over should cover in a high-scoring game with both offenses stepping up.

Take the Over on 6 goals.
